As the Golden State Warriors entered the offseason, letting Kevon Looney walk in free agency to the New Orleans Pelicans seemed like a difficult, but necessary, decision to be made.
However, as the Warriors enter training camp with a need for veteran presences to help fill out their rotation, Looney has a prime opportunity to make them regret their move if he plays an integral role in New Orleans this year.
At only age 29, Looney's nuanced understanding of Golden State's systems and the roles he needs to play within them have propelled him to a great career up to this point, and, now, the Pelicans' young center rotation could benefit highly from his presence.
