This could be PERFECT for the Warriors
free agency is going to be massive for the Warriors this season we need to rebuild this team to compete for a championship next year there are 10 free agents that I think the Warriors need to Target we’re going to break it down on this episode of Warriors digest before we dive into it thank you for watching please keep subscribing we appreciate you watching us if you want to support subscribe it helps grow the channel so other Warriors fans see these videos daily and before we get into it I just want to say because the Nuggets just lost to the timber wolves in the Western Conference semifinals Warriors are still the last team that go back to back in the NBA Finals 2017 2018 KD Steph clay and the big boy Draymond backto back in three out of four obviously we almost went back to back to back we didn’t but still we hold that mantle let’s go and let’s get into today’s episode top 10 free agents Hoops hype put out a list of their top free agents it’s like 100 200 people deep a lot of free agents I picked out the top 10 who I think would be a great fit for the Warriors to be able to be great fit what do we need shooting be able to help out Steph we need size down below blocks rebounds space the floor if we can get a three and D type of player if we can get a big man who can get rebounds score in the paint get out top of the paint pick and roll shoot and can we get people who are smart able to play off the bench in our second team not turn the ball over with that in mind we’re going to go for that we’re going to try to make salary work if we say we need to do a trade we’ll do that but it’s really about just the fit of the players I want you all to comment do you like the list do not is there’s somebody I’m missing let’s make this interactive as a friendly reminder this is what we have just so you know Klay Thompson is not on this list I’m not adding Klay Thompson these are people who are currently not on the Warriors but of course if fre can get him a Team friendly deal bring him back so right now if we’re going to make a trade we’ll try to talk about it in the salary committed so let’s act like Clay is not here so all we’re looking at is 2425 and Chris Paul 30 million isn’t there so we can use that for fun number one and this probably is not going to happen Pascal seakan Indiana 68 245 30 years old right in his prime he won against the Warriors in 2019 with the Raptors that win the finals wion the championship however he’s kind of tailed off since then he hasn’t been playing at his prime though he’s done well with Indiana but not the same Heights when he was with Toronto two-way player can shoot Elite size transition very well back and forth elusive play defense offense earnings $37 million probably as a free agent is going to stay with Indiana so this is more unrealistic but he’d be a great fit you put them next to Brandon you put them next to Steph you have tjd down below you have Draymond and that’s your starting five Wiggins comes off the bench or you trade Wiggins again his salary may be tough say he’s still in the 3040 million range he could fit for Chris Paul probably not he’s going to be a bit more 30 you think so if Dre got four years 100 million 25 million each maybe but you probably have to not resign Chris Paul and then wigg maybe trade or you have to get rid of Moody in the trade and you can make the money work so not unrealistic but Indiana didn’t trade for him to let him walk probably stays Indiana two OG anobi small forward Nicks obviously he was doing really well for the Knicks in his playoffs unfortunately he got hurt pulled his hammy and basically was one of the reasons why the Knicks lost that series there’s to hurt weren’t able to make it up but look at his stats season 15 points a game four rebounds two assists he’s 67 240 and only 26 years old not in his prime yet so he’d be great for us to sign building up into his prime he’s a Powerhouse spot up shooter behind the arc mid-range off the dribble good size Elite Defender fits perfectly if you can’t get Pascal OG again put them right there Steph Brandon OG Draymond Trace Jackson Davis that could be your five we look at salary1 million definitely probably going up to the 25 $35 million range could be money there to sign him without Chris Paul maybe you have to make a trade to be able to free up some more space however most likely could stay with the Knicks I would assume but he’d be a good Target three surprising Malik monk yes with Sacramento Kings our little brothers however he fits the build of a Warriors player he’s an amazing shooter he can score for himself he should have been Sixth Man of the Year got hurt they didn’t give him the award I truly think he should have got it but he’s a great spot up shooter he’s a great crate for himself he would fit great next to steep or he comes off the bench and plays uh as a second role Malik is 63 200 lb 26 years old so again coming right into his prime he’s a two-way guard probably can play a little bit harder on defense but again he can just shoot he can get to the rim he can dribble create for himself a very versatile player now the good thing is by being with Mike Brown he basically knows the Warrior system or variation of it so it could be a very seamless transition my assumption is he stays with the Kings if he wants MoneyWise but also he knows the culture however he’s talked about wanting to start and more playing time is he going to start with the Warriors as you start at the second position and you push Brandon to the bench probably not I think he’d be a good fit here but probably not going to happen again please comment your thoughts let me know what you think about these we’re just talking about the fits on the team Nick claxon I’ve already talked about him on another video putting it below so I’m not going to take a lot of time here Nick is 611 215 he’d be a great fit the one problem with Claxton is he’s not a good shooter he’s not going to be a 3 and D he’s not going to be someone on the pick and roll with Steph who’s be able to pop it so teams will slack off him get into the paint but he can roll catch it he’ll play defense block rebound everything so in that case I think he’d be a good fit however the problem with Claxton he’s getting a massive payday we’re talking probably 2535 million range as I said in video may not have enough money to get him I think we need somebody like Robin Lopez with Milwaukee plays great defense rebounds spreads the floor can make can make the three that is what we need to be successful in this offense another great shooter kcp cavius cwell Pope he is a player option so potentially he won’t be free agent but he fit the offense of the Warriors really well 65 215 31 years old so just kind of in that Prime maybe right at the cups of being out of it two-way guard can shoot pop and shooter won’t take the ball away from Steph being 65 great defender kind of fills a spot of clay probably come off the bench so get to need more height still but it’s a good person to come in and give us more shooting around step Isaiah hardstein before the NBA Playoffs probably never would have said this now after seeing him play with the Knicks I like him a lot 611 215 and he’s only 26 years old get a comeing those Prime and what has he done so well for the Knicks hustle plays rebounds defense had some shooting not the best but really was a force inside for them against the Pacers he’s a good rebounder we just said durable down low tough $9 million probably will only get between 10 to 25 million I mean it’s a big range but just saying so could be doable you don’t have Chris Paul have that money to spend you could easily be coming in there him and tjd make a onew I know a lot of people in the comments say hey what about wisman bringing back what a good fit what makes you think he’s going to be good fit now I want someone who’s proven who can go out there and do it and we’ve seen him do in the playoffs yonas valunas Center New Orleans this is your typical Center he’s big I mean look at his size 61 265 32 years old so a little bit older than his prime someone you signed maybe a one twoyear contract but he fits the Bold at what we need will block will rebound will set hard screens will be in the paint of force however ever really not the best shooter he’s definitely more of that traditional big man he’ll he’ll get exposed potentially in switches not that fast earning 15 million this year probably in the same range coming up I would assume so it could work without Chris Paul there however I again I like someone who’s more of a stretch Center buddy hee going back to shooting guard I think this be great another former King player you know did a little bit with Philly didn’t do a lot saw him towards the end of the playoffs making some shots however comes off the bench for the Warriors gives up some good dep be able to shoot the three space the floor can handle the ball as a point guard a little bit but not that much again he’s only 31 years old so coming right out of his prime still in it 64 220 good size can ran it from behind the arc solid player experience I think he could be a good fit two more sadik Bay small for with Atlanta he’s a restricted so again he may not actually hit the market he’s 67 215 25 years old Great Floor spacing Wing he’s only earning 4.5 million could get him economically moving forward and he would be a great again floor spacer help us with shooting can play defense well great size he can score for himself probably coming off the bench and then lastly Moritz Wagner he’s on team option with Orlando I don’t think he’s gonna get free unfortunately but good size can dribble as a big man spread the floor block rebound make some shots not the way you would hope as a someone around Steph being able to do a three and D player per se but gives us some good size and able to help out tjd there so those are the top 10 I think would be good fits for the Warriors not all of them are the perfect crystal ball that you would want to build up but they all can be at peace to helping rebuild this team to be successful to take us back to the championship next year so what did I forget comment your thoughts and let me know and of course subscribe to Warriors digest we have all the Warriors news rumors digest free agency and more for you daily deuces

Nah mehe nui bless the lord ❤️ 🙏
Nice vid bro
We need reliable SG and pure Center that can defend so no for all SF or PF position ( other than Lauri markkanen )
So i like buddy hield or isiah choice as back up SG and starting center if we can operate him like looney but taller than he can work
I still want James wiseman back now we had TJD , he can learn to become a true defense center from TJD when we draft him no one had that Draymond can’t teach that since he is helping defender not main defender
U tweaking Malik would start for the Warriors there’s no shooting guard on Golden State better than him!!!
SCORING SIZE DEFENSE ALL WE NEEED
I've watched many of your videos and the fact you don't include Jonathan Kuminga when you talk about starters is ridiculous.
Get Claxton for down low play. The high$$ invests in the future. Clay and the Warriors can teach him how to shoot better.
