Aron Baynes

Aron Baynes would be the perfect addition for the Golden State Warriors. He’s everything this team needs. He has size and shooting, two things the Warriors could use more of, especially in their frontcourt.

Baynes stands 6-foot-10. Having most recently played with the Phoenix Suns, Baynes may be looking at the team’s mid-level exception. A champion in his own right, Baynes averaged 1.4 threes per game.

He’s a solid veteran, and his shooting would be a nice refresher in the Warriors’ frontcourt. Their frontcourt currently has James Wiseman, Kevon Looney, and Marquese Chriss. All three of those players are not shooters. Baynes is.

Not a shooter when he came into the league, Baynes started to shoot, and now he can do it at a rather high level. In Phoenix, not only was he a sniper, but Baynes averaged over double figures for the first time in his career.

His shooting and size make Baynes a perfect addition for the Golden State Warriors.
