Golden State Warriors: Ranking the free agents
10. Matt Barnes
At 37 years old, Matt Barnes finally has a ring and a long career to show for it. Bringing back one of the most beloved members of past Warriors teams created for a good story at the end of the season. It’s unclear what his future plans are, but Barnes probably won’t be looking at any deal bigger than a vet minimum.
If the Warriors decide they want to bring him back, it would likely be at the end of free agency after everyone else is locked up. He got his ring and his moment with the fans. If this is the end, then it was quite a ride.
9. James McAdoo
James McAdoo is the lone restricted free agent for the Golden State Warriors. That means the team has the right to match any offer he receives once they extend a qualifying offer to him. With the right to match, this will be low on the priority list.
If the Warriors have a full roster or want as much cap space as possible, it would not be out of the realm of possibility to see the team renounce his rights and make him unrestricted to save as much necessary cap space as possible.
