It's a momentous day for the Golden State Warriors franchise, as not one, but two accomplished members of the organization will be inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. Warriors President & Chief Operating Officer Rick Welts and Player Development Consultant Steve Nash have been elected as part of the 13-member Class of 2018.
Welts, currently in his seventh season with the Warriors, owns over 40 years of NBA experience, including nine years as president of the Phoenix Suns, a 17-year stint (1982-1999) at the NBA league office in New York, and 10 years with the Seattle SuperSonics.
