With one roster spot left and a limited market, who should the Golden State Warriors sign?

The Golden State Warriors are the league’s best team, but they have far from the league’s best bench. With one roster spot remaining, who would fit well with their second unit? Obviously, they’ll more likely sign a veteran with that spot to fill the ‘David West‘ role.

Also, there isn’t much youth on the market right now, or at least, there isn’t much interesting and useful youth. That means, they’ll be looking to gain a significant bench contribution from anybody they sign.

Prior to their game against the New York Knicks, the Dubs possessed the league’s worst scoring second unit. They need some help, especially with the frequent injuries to players like Andre Iguodala and Shaun Livingston.

As many of these Warrior players enter their fifth straight season of over 95 games, they’ll need all the help they can get, in whatever role they can get it in. While they haven’t exposed teams so far this season, they should start blowing teams out, allowing more time for the second unit.

That said, there are a few players still on the market that the Dubs can target, and here are the top five.
