De'Anthony Melton is quickly making a claim as one of the best bench guards in the entire NBA, continuing his strong return from injury in the Golden State Warriors' 119-97 blowout win over the Portland Trail Blazers on Tuesday night.
Melton once again broke his season-high in scoring, notching a team-high 23 points on 9-of-14 shooting from the floor and 4-of-6 from 3-point range as he continues to provide a level of impact that not even the Warriors would have predicted so quickly after injury.
