The Golden State Warriors were one of the league’s worst teams this season, and they could’ve used those meaningless games more advantageously.
There’s no denying this has been a tough season for the Golden State Warriors. After five straight NBA Finals appearances, coming in dead last in the Western Conference hasn’t sat well.
But, the true fans know that the end of this dynasty is still not in sight. Yes, they may have had a down season, but there were reasons behind that.
Obviously, Klay Thompson’s torn ACL and Stephen Curry’s early-season broken hand significantly impacted the Warriors season. Sitting at 15-50, the Warriors are the only team outside of playoff contention.
With the league currently suspended, the Warriors season may be all but over. Looking back on the season, there are a plethora of silver linings, including the team retaining their 2020 first-round pick.
The rising of a few stars, both drafted and signed, has been wildly beneficial for Golden State. That said, let’s dive into three players that Steve Kerr should’ve given a bit more time during these meaningless games.
