The Golden State Warriors are one of the league’s most dynamic teams and could become even more lethal by adding veteran Jamal Crawford.

This offseason has already been immensely successful for the Golden State Warriors.

By signing DeMarcus Cousins, they continued their trend of acquiring world-class talent. Now, for Boogie, the only question is: can the big man thrive in the Bay? While the offseason brought him there, it’s anyone’s guess if he’ll be able to perform well and help maintain their united team-first mentality.

Boogie’s addition wasn’t the only quality move for the Dubs. They also drafted Jacob Evans, a junior from the University of Cincinnati. Evans is a tenacious defender and should slide right into their backup shooting guard role.

Offensively, Evans might struggle, especially when it comes to efficiency. Not an ideal offensive talent, the Dubs should consider signing Jamal Crawford to play alongside and counter his defensive mindset with a proven scoring option.

The Warriors second unit, while not horrific, wouldn’t be at the top of the league as far as benches go. While they might not need a talented second unit, they could use one that produces enough to maintain a lead. Right now it’s up in the air if their current second unit could do that.

However, Jamal Crawford might be able to fix all that. That said, here are three reasons why the Warriors should sign Jamal Crawford.
