Kevon Looney never wanted to leave the Golden State Warriors or the Bay Area, but this summer, a big offer from the New Orleans Pelicans was too much to turn down. Sunday in The Players’ Tribune, Looney declared that, even though he’s playing elsewhere, “I’m Bay Area for life, no matter where I go.”
In his heartfelt essay, Looney made it clear that he felt grateful for his decade with the Dubs — and that it wasn’t exactly his choice to leave.
This was not an easy decision for me. I know that I’ve had it good for the past 10 years, believe me.
