Eleven minutes into the Warriors' 119-104 loss to the Celtics, 22-year-old Omari Spellman stood at the top of the key, surrounded by teammates of a similar era.
To the right of Spellman, 20-year-old rookie Jordan Poole stood in the corner, waiting for a pass that never came. To his left, another rookie, 23-year-old Eric Paschall stood in the other corner. Of the five players on the floor, only Alec Burks was born before 1995, bringing a familiar sight for Golden State.
The Warriors have the third-youngest roster in the league as of Thursday, a far cry from its veteran-led team from a year ago.
