Warriors Rumors: Golden State Worried Patrick McCaw Will Leave Next Offseason

The Golden State Warriors are letting Ian Clark walk in free agency this offseason due to their salary cap situation, and they believe they have a viable replacement for his role in Patrick McCaw.

However, there's a good chance McCaw may not be back with the team after the upcoming season, according to ESPN's Bobby Marks.

Kevin Durant took significantly less money on a one-year contract this offseason to help Golden State re-sign Andre Iguodala and Shaun Livingston, but is expected to opt out and re-sign with the Warriors for more money - if not the max. 

As such, they probably won't have enough space to bring back McCaw, who averaged 4.0 points on 43.3 percent shooting in 15.1 minutes per game as a rookie last season.

The Warriors took McCaw with the No. 38 pick in the 2016 draft and signed him to a guaranteed two-year deal for the minimum - a rarity for a second-round pick.
