Role on the 2019-20 Warriors

Willie Cauley-Stein was a surprising offseason signing, brought on to be the half-starter at the center position. Which is to say, he was signed with the goal of playing 24 minutes a night, with Kevon Looney taking the other 24. One will start, one will come off the bench, both will play mostly equal minutes. While the 26-year old lottery pick is far from a star, it was expected that he’d get a bit more money than the Warriors were able to offer him, so Golden State is certainly happy to have him.
