The ex- Denver Nugget recently joined the Pacific division by signing with the Warriors. Andre Iguodala is a versatile player who can contribute on both ends of the floor. His perimeter defense is his strongest suit, but his offensive game is nothing to brush off. He is a slasher who converts at an efficient rate of 67.8 percent of his shots in the lane.
In his nine years in the NBA, Iguodala has averaged 15.1 points, 5.8 rebounds and 4.9 assists. A former All-Star and Olympic Gold Medalist, Iguodala is going to be an effective player in his new setting.
