Marquese Chriss
After starting his career in Phoenix, Chriss spent time with Houston and Cleveland before finding his way to Golden State in 2019-2020. He immediately came in and was a part of the rotation of centers that the team has had over the years.
Chriss only started 21 out of 60 games, but he proved that he has the capability and the youth to be the franchise’s starting center for some time. Last year, Chriss averaged 9.3 points, 6.2 rebounds, 1.9 assists, and 1.1 blocks per game in 20 minutes per game.
Even over his stats though, the 6-foot-9 center is a presence inside for the team that realistically on a couple of players on the team possess.
With similar numbers to Paschall, Chriss has a similar contract with him too. Currently, Chriss is on a minimum with the Warriors for just under $700,000 per year. That is dirt cheap for the production he is giving the team.
The Warriors have a roster that they should probably not readily give anyone up. Specifically, the three players here are ones that are outplaying their contract to such an extreme that they need to be non-tradeable in the front office’s minds.
