Enes Kanter

The New York Knicks recently decided that Enes Kanter will no longer benefit them in the long run. However, the Warriors might be able to put Kanter to good use. His size alone makes him valuable to the Dubs.

While the Warriors obviously love to play small ball, it’s always safe to have a big man ready to check in. Kanter stands at 6’11 and is a very good rebounder. He is averaging 14 points and 10.5 rebounds a game this season.

Kanter would provide some much-needed depth at the center position for the Warriors. It is never a bad idea to add an extra player to the bench and give themselves some security in case of an injury.

Given Cousins’ injury history, Kanter could be the Warriors insurance policy.
