Marquese Chriss looked like someone playing on borrowed time just a couple of months ago. Now, it’s hard to imagine the Golden State Warriors without him.
That’s a testament to both his growth as a player on the court and as a person off the court.
Chriss came to Golden State treading water with his NBA career hanging in the balance. And it’s safe to say he didn’t come with the most favorable reputation.
After two failed seasons in Phoenix and one uneventful one split between the Houston Rockets and Cleveland Cavaliers, Chriss had rightfully earned the title of being a draft bust.
