Last offseason, the Golden State Warriors wanted to make adding a veteran backup point guard a priority. They signed the Celtics Brad Wanamaker.
At the time, it felt like an underwhelming addition, and after trading him to the Charlotte Hornets prior to the deadline, they’ll be back in that same situation this coming offseason, another period that will be spent with little money to use on free agents.
