It's been an amazing season for the Warriors, and after two consecutive seasons of silence, the Warriors have bottomed out this season, going from bottom to being the league number one.
And it was completed in the case that the two core players of Klay and Wiseman, one old and one young, have not yet returned, which shows the amazing performance of this Warriors team since the beginning of the season.
However, there is still a certain shortcoming in the team lineup configuration, that is, the lack of a stable substitute point guard, which needs to be filled by the team management at the right time.
Iguodala currently plays the role of second-team organizer, and he does have this ability, but given his age and habitual style of play, the Warriors still need to have a backup point guard in case of unforeseen needs.
To this end, the US media "bluemanhoop" supports the Warriors, which can pick up 3 substitute point guards at a low price, of which the Rockets veteran is on the list, and the Spurs core is second.
Option three: DJ Augustine
As a veteran point guard, DJ Augustine played a controlling role in the Rockets, especially after Green and Porter Jr. were injured, and the importance of DJ Augustine was revealed.
Whenever the Rockets enter a key moment, DJ Augustine must have handed over the most secure way of handling the game with experience, while also occasionally showing his personal scoring ability, and in the game against the Eagles, he scored 22 points on 7-of-7 shooting.
Don't think of it as a flash in the pan, he has averaged more than 10 points per game in four of the past five seasons, averaged more than three assists per game, and played less than 25 minutes in multiple seasons.
As a result, he's a player who fully meets the Warriors' reinforcement needs and can immediately enter the second team and become a backcourt brain.
Even if Klay returns and Poole returns to the bench, DJ Augustine can play an end role on the perimeter, shooting 45 percent from three-point range this season.
Coupled with the fact that the Rockets have confirmed a rebuild and are cleaning up the veteran, the Warriors have every chance to get him through low prices, such as offering the Rockets a second-round pick.
Option two: Derek White
White plays a central role in rebuilding the Spurs, but his 27-year-old doesn't fit the Spurs' rebuilding blueprint.
This season, he has performed well, averaging more than 14 points per game and averaging more than 5 assists per game, performing well on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends.
Whether in terms of size, speed, ability or experience, he is the perfect choice for the Warriors' second-team brain, but the problem is that his contract is relatively large, and the transaction price is not too low, which is the main reason why he is second.
Option one: T.J. McConnell
T.J. McConnell's abilities are hard to compare to White's, but his more friendly contract, worth $7.5 million this season, is one of the Warriors' very realistic reinforcement targets.
He's the kind of player that every team loves, and whenever he gets the chance to play, he will do his best, especially on the defensive end, and he is tenacious and not afraid of any opponent.
A highly effective scorer with extensive experience in handling the ball and solid passing skills, he is a practical player despite his low personal ceiling, perfectly suited to play the role of second-team brain, and with the Pacers currently on a big sale, the Warriors are hopeful of bringing in the bench point guard who is expected to become a Surpriser through a low price similar to a second-round pick.
