Warriors’ Yaxel Lendeborg makes stunning ‘wet the bed’ admission after crushing Nuggets

Yaxel Lendeborg exploded for 31 points, 12 rebounds and six assists as the Golden State Warriors routed the Denver Nuggets 134‑114 on Monday night. The 24‑year‑old rookie admitted he had expected to “wet the bed” before the game, but a confidence boost from Stephen Curry, Draymond Green and coach Steve Kerr helped him play aggressively and deliver a career‑best start.

Lendeborg’s breakout follows a modest preseason showing in Honolulu, where he scored four points against the Clippers. After seeking advice from Curry and Green, he embraced a more aggressive mindset, a shift that has seen him average over 20 points in his first four NBA contests, a feat not achieved by a Warriors rookie since the early 2000s.
