Thaddeus Young

The 6-foot-8 Thaddeus Young has always been an underrated player. While he has two more years on his contract, having Young on the roster does bring a level of leadership, but it doesn’t add much to their push for a young core.

At 32, Young is putting together a surprisingly good season for the Bulls, a team that likely won’t end up making the playoffs. He’s averaging just over ten points per game and is shooting a career-high 59 percent from the field.

Young’s three-point shooting has been down, but no one is complaining as his efficiency is up. Tallying over five rebounds and four assists per game as well, Young is a solid all-around option that could give the Warriors a different dynamic.

Young has a similar style of play to Eric Paschall as an undersized four that can do just about everything. He would be a solid addition to potentially start to play alongside the starting unit in more small-ball lineups.
