In the wake of a devastating summer, the Golden State Warriors knew they would rely heavily on their newest backcourt pairing. D’Angelo Russell and Stephen Curry have the potential to carry the franchise deep into the future.
Russell, at 23-years of age, is more than capable of becoming Curry’s predecessor. The elite playmaking guard can learn a lot from Curry. One day, the hope is that Russell will be a cornerstone of the franchise, carrying the dynasty into the next generation.
Of course, this means the two need to build a connection this season.
