Good Morning Dub Nation,
While the Golden State Warriors remain focused on finishing this season off strong, their outlook beyond that is about to get more complicated. This past weekend, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported that the NBA and the NBA Players Association reached a deal on a new seven-year collective bargaining agreement. Although there were several new changes put into place, one of them regarding teams in the luxury tax appears to be especially pointed at the Warriors.
The NBA is curbing the ability of the highest-spending teams, such as the Golden State Warriors and the LA Clippers, to continue running up salary and luxury tax spending while still maintaining mechanisms to add talent to the roster.
