Wayne Ellington
The Golden State Warriors should absolutely look to add a guy like Wayne Ellington. Ellington has played for seven different NBA teams and has a bunch of veteran knowledge ready to be used in prime playoff games.
Ellington is capable of being an effective role player. While he is slightly undersized for his position at 6-foot-5, he makes up for it with quick feet and using his IQ to be in the right place at the right time.
His defense is about average but is capable of making an impact. His 3-point shooting would fit right in with the Warriors. A career 38 percent shooter from deep, Ellington is known for making it rain from beyond the arc.
He is an ideal player to be added to the Warriors bench and the Dubs should make a push to sign him.
