The 2015 NBA draft has dominated headlines for months now, and rightfully so. Teams are holding workouts, writers and analysts are making predictions, and fans are holding out hope their team will find the next best thing in whomever it drafts.
But free agency can be just as important as the draft—perhaps even more so.
This is especially true for a team like the Golden State Warriors, a club that has the No. 30 overall pick in the draft thanks to its league-best 67-15 record.
Without many impact players expected to be available late in the first round, the Warriors might have no choice but to address the needs they have by bringing in veteran players who are ready to adapt to any role Golden State would need them to play.
