The Golden State Warriors haven’t made any big free agency moves yet, but that doesn’t mean they’re just sitting around. According to reliable NBA insider Marc Stein, the team is quietly working behind the scenes and could still sign some important players soon.
Stein recently said on a sports radio show that he expects the Warriors will end up adding Al Horford and De’Anthony Melton to their roster. He also mentioned that they’re still interested in Bradley Beal.
For Warriors fans, this is exciting. Stein is known for being pretty accurate when it comes to NBA news, and if he’s confident about it, there’s a good chance it could really happen.
Horford is a big name and has been linked to the Warriors for a while, but Melton might be the more underrated gem. Melton played just six games with the Warriors last season before getting injured, but he fit in really well, both on and off the court. He averaged over 10 points per game, played solid defence, and hit over 37% of his 3-point shots.
He also got along great with the team, which made him a favourite in the locker room. If he comes back healthy, a reunion could be exactly what the Warriors need—a smart, steady player who fits their system and adds positive energy.
So while the team has been quiet in the headlines, don’t be surprised if they’re setting up a couple of smart moves that could make a big difference when the season begins.
