Here it comes! The signing to join the Warriors is confirmed! This is the NBA’s Best Sixth Man.

As reported by journalist Ary,Brogdon is expected to sign with the Warriors.

Brogdon, born on December 11, 1992, was the 6th pick in the second round of the 2016 draft. The 1.93-meter guard last season played for the Wizards, earning a $22.5 million salary, appearing in 24 regular-season games with 13 starts, averaging 23.5 minutes, contributing 12.7 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 4.1 assists per game, with shooting percentages of 43.3%, 28.6%, and 88%.

Since entering the NBA, Brogdon has averaged double-digit points every season. During the 2020-21 season with the Pacers, he averaged 21.2 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 5.9 assists per game, hitting 2.6 three-pointers per game at a 38.8% clip. In the 2022-23 season with the Celtics, he averaged 14.9 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 3.7 assists, earning the Best Sixth Man award.

Therefore, if Brogdon indeed brings his talent to Golden State as reported, he would be the Warriors’ most significant addition this summer, playing a key role in the second unit or even the starting lineup, reigniting his own hopes of contending for a championship.

However, like Horford and Melton, Brogdon’s signing with the Warriors depends on the resolution of the DPOY candidate Kuminga’s contract situation during the offseason...

ESPN reporter Shelburne recently revealed,Warriors owner Joe Lacob has expressed his desire for Kuminga to stay with the team long-term.

According to information from Kuminga’s camp, as long as the Warriors offer a three-year, $82 million extension and guarantee a core role, he is willing to return to the team.

Lacob has publicly admitted multiple times that he is a huge fan of Kuminga, and they share a good personal relationship. As a result, he has not been eager to trade Kuminga and has recently reiterated his hope that the player remains. Earlier reports indicate the Warriors have seemingly closed the door on trade deals involving Kuminga’s sign-and-trade.

Because of Kuminga, the Warriors remain the only team in the entire league this summer offseason without any signings or trades. Especially compared to other strong Western Conference teams that have all made some reinforcements, their lack of moves has been extremely disappointing.
