Yaxel Lendeborg is off to an excellent start in his NBA career, averaging 21.8 points, 9.3 rebounds and 4.8 assists per game through his first four contests.
Lendeborg put forth his best effort yet in a win over the Denver Nuggets on Monday, posting 31 points, 12 rebounds and six assists.
Lendeborg led the way for the Warriors in scoring, followed by veteran point guard Steph Curry. The all-time great sharpshooter shot 100% from the field, 100% from behind the 3-point arc and 100% from the free-throw line as he scored 24 points in Golden State's first win of the year.

"He's just got composure and feel. His size on the court — he's a matchup problem. He's never really in a hurry," Curry said. "Kind of the full package.”
Fresh off their first win of the year, Curry, Lendeborg and the Warriors will look to maintain their positive momentum into a matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wednesday night.

The Warriors and Timberwolves will tip off at 8 p.m. ET from Minnesota's Target Center.
