‘Kerr won’t like this’ – Warriors fans concerned about what Yaxel Lendeborg just said

Warriors fans are troubled by Yaxel Lendeborg's candid remarks following the team's 123-85 loss to the San Antonio Spurs. The rookie forward had been on a hot streak, averaging 21 points and seven rebounds in his debut season. However, his performance in the defeat was disastrous, with only three points on just 1-of-13 shooting.

Lendeborg admitted that early misses significantly impacted his performance, saying, "First shot, in and out. I'm like, 'Yep, it’s gonna be a bad day.'" Warriors supporters weren't convinced by his explanation, questioning his mentality and calling it "soft" and "mentally weak." They suggested that the sudden pressure on Lendeborg, given his rapid rise, could be a contributing factor to his poor performance.
