The Golden State Warriors are expected to make many, many moves this offseason, as they balance an aging core, an exciting crop of youngsters, and a whole lot of money on the books. And to help them do that, the Dubs have done something common in the NBA these days, but unheard of just a decade ago: hired a cap specialist.
According to The Athletic’s Anthony Slater, the Warriors are hiring Jon Phelps to serve as the team’s cap specialist. Phelps comes to the Dubs from the Detroit Pistons where, according to his LinkedIn, he served as Senior Director of Basketball Strategy.
