2. Trevor Ariza

There is not a better veteran wing player hitting free agency this offseason than Trevor Ariza.

Ariza is one of the OG 3-and-D players. He has played at the highest level, winning a championship alongside Kobe Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers in 2009. To this day, Ariza is making an impact with his perimeter defense and jump shot.

The Warriors need someone to be their enforcer. This is something that Ariza has added to his reputation over the years as he refuses to be bullied by an opponent. We saw this on full display this season when he shoved Trae Young for attempting to nut-meg him.

As most of the league spent this year clowning the Dubs, Ariza could be useful in restoring that sense of dominance the team is missing. Not to mention, he can still benefit the team on both ends of the floor with his skillset.
