The Warriors have plenty of financial limits, but need size and shooting
General manager Mike Dunleavy Jr.’s offseason free agency check list is short, but challenging.
Adding more to that challenge are the skills a player should possess to get minutes within the Warriors’ system. Head coach Steve Kerr prioritizes players who can rebound and defend their position, be a quick decision-maker within their motion offense and, to fill a frontcourt need, shoot the ball. The Warriors have often sacrificed size for skill — that sacrifice came back to bite in their playoff loss to the Los Angeles Lakers with seven-foot Anthony Davis. They’ve also hit big on some gambles.
Saric does all the little things Kerr and the Warriors could want from a frontcourt player — with a little extra. He can rebound, move the ball in a motion offense and stretch the floor as a 3-point shooter.
