The Golden State Warriors may not like the thought of their dynasty ending, but no good thing lasts forever. This team won’t have the primed Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson in five years. What do they do then?
Well, they hand the keys to D’Angelo Russell. That’s exactly what they do, and if this fit works, it seems like the ideal move for the team’s long-term future. Russell should continue to develop while in Golden State, potentially becoming a top-five point guard.
Regardless of if he develops that far, Russell’s good enough to at least keep the Dubs relevant.
