2. Channing Frye

The Golden State Warriors are a team that perfectly matches Channing Frye’s playstyle. Frye has made a name for himself as a deadly sharpshooter for his position. Frye plays limited minutes but can light it up from beyond the 3-point line in a hurry.

Channing has been in the league for 14 years and won a championship with the Cleveland Cavaliers in the 2016 season. He is one center that has thrived in the modern era of basketball that prioritizes 3-point shooting over post-up plays.

The Warriors could plug Frye into the lineup and rely on him for instant offense at any point in the game. Furthermore, the fact that he plays the center position helps add more depth. Lastly, his experience and veteran leadership are all benefits to this potential signing as well.
