Before the free agency frenzy begins, let’s take a look at the best wings the Golden State Warriors should be targetting.

Well, what a week it’s been for the Golden State Warriors. The joy of drafting James Wiseman with the second overall pick was overshadowed by the bitter reality that Klay Thompson may never fully recover from a devastating sequence of injuries.

The Warriors are in a tough spot now. It’s hard to imagine they become title favorites with Thompson sidelined for the foreseeable future. This is a contrast from where they would have been if he had not fallen to injury yet again.

It’s more important than ever that the Dubs add some depth on the wing. Not only do they need to help round out the rotation behind Andrew Wiggins – but they now need to find players that can replace Thompson on the perimeter.

Luckily, this year’s free agency class is loaded with wing players. Let’s look at the eight best players who could be available.
