Warriors bold free agency decision already justified after shock retirement call

The decision to bypass on Malcolm Brogdon in free agency this summer has already been justified for the Golden State Warriors, with the 32-year-old announcing his shock retirement from the NBA on the eve of the regular season.

The Warriors made what appeared at the time like a controversial free agency decision in the offseason, prioritizing the likes of Seth Curry and Gary Payton II over Brogdon despite their lack of point guard options beyond Stephen Curry.

Brogdon was strongly linked to the Warriors for some weeks, yet the interest on the franchise's side obviously wasn't big enough given the 32-year-old accepted just a training camp deal with the New York Knicks.
