Coming off a legitimate “gut-it-out” performance during the Golden State Warriors’ Game 2 win over the Toronto Raptors, DeMarcus Cousins had to be feeling good. But it appears the team had no interest in taking any risks with the center, nor did they want to push it with Sunday night’s Mr. Clutch, Andre Iguodala.
As RealGM revealed, the duo was spotted being pushed through the airport in wheelchairs after the second game of the NBA Finals.

The good news is that Cousins seemed to be all smiles after the game, and there doesn’t appear to be anything concerning about the situation involving either player. Although the same can’t necessarily be said for Klay Thompson, who left Sunday’s game due to an injury.
Play of DeMarcus Cousins & Andre Iguodala in Warriors’ Win
After a tough Game 1 loss, the Warriors bounced back with a 109-104 victory in Toronto, stealing home-court advantage in the process. The play of Cousins and Iguodala was a big part, as the talented center logged 28 minutes and scored 11 points with 10 rebounds, six assists and two blocks.
Iguodala hit a clutch 3-pointer late in the game which sealed the victory for Golden State. He also posted a well-rounded stat line with eight points, eight rebounds, six assists, one steal and one block. Overall, the duo of Cousins and Iguodala had arguably their personal best performances this postseason and showed the upside the Warriors have, even with Kevin Durant sidelined.
Klay Thompson Injury
While it was Cousins and Iguodala spotted in the wheelchairs, the injury concern for the Warriors following this game came primarily from Klay Thompson. As ESPN’s Nick Friedell reported, the star guard left Sunday’s game due to left hamstring tightness. He will have an MRI on Monday to determine the severity of the injury.
Thompson was spotted limping out of the arena after the game, but there’s optimism around his chances to play in Game 3. As Friedell revealed, Warriors coach Steve Kerr sounded off on the injury.
“Klay said he’ll be fine, but Klay can be half-dead and he’d say he’s [fine]. We’ll see,” Warriors coach Steve Kerr said. “He pulled his hamstring. He thinks it’s minor — I don’t know what that means going forward.”
The story goes on to point out that while Kerr stated Thompson had “pulled his hamstring” that the Warriors confirmed it was just tightness and did not appear to be anything more.
