Despite the Golden State Warriors hovering around the .500 mark for much of the 2023-24 season, owner Joe Lacob has no interest in tearing down the roster and entering a rebuilding phase.
Speaking to ESPN's Baxter Holmes, Lacob rejected the idea of "bottoming out" and mentioned the Warriors' status as a coveted free-agent landing spot as a reason why they may be able to avoid that fate:
"It's the reason that I don't think we will ever, ever try to bottom out. We are the Golden State Warriors. I believe in the culture. I believe that word gets out.
