The Warriors are likely to start the season with their current roster. Some of the changes within the Warriors last season were still very noticeable, such as Thompson's long bench service last season. Even in some games, Kerr didn't let Thompson play at key moments. This is partly one of the reasons for Thompson's departure. In fact, not only Thompson, but another meritorious player of the Warriors also suffered from such a problem, he was the Warriors' iron starter, but he not only lost his starting position last season, but was even abandoned by Kerr for a long time, and this player is Kevon Looney.

There was news of a trade for Looney this offseason. But in the end, the Warriors chose to keep Looney, and Looney was able to continue to wear the Warriors jersey. Although Looney has managed to stay with the Warriors, the competitive environment he faces next season is still very tough, after all, Jackson Davis Jr. is currently starting to make his mark, and the two of them are in a competitive relationship next season. Looney is also aware of the crisis, so he is ready to change his style of play next season, and maybe he will try more outside shooting in the new season.

Not long ago, Looney said that in the new season, he will expand his attack range more outward, which is the so-called shooting on the outside, such as three-point shots and mid-range. Before Looney entered the NBA, his style of play was very well-rounded, often shooting three-pointers and mid-range. Even many fans gave him the title of "Little Durant". But after entering the NBA, in order to adapt to Kerr's system, he changed his position and played more inside. He's not technically tall enough to play an interior lineman, and his finishing ability under the basket isn't particularly strong.

So next season, Rooney will be showing his hidden skills again. In fact, in the past so many years, Rooney has wanted to shoot mid-range on the court, but he seems to think that this style of play is against the coach's ideas, and many times he wanted to shoot, but he stopped it. Maybe he will become more resolute next season, for example, after blocking and dismantling Curry, the opponent will give him a chance to shoot from mid-range, maybe he will choose to shoot directly, in fact, Looney's mid-range shooting is very stable, but he doesn't shoot.

Hopefully, Rooney will have a significant change in stats after changing his style of play next season and be able to gain more trust from Kerr. Not only Looney, but if Jackson Davis Jr. wants to have a better development in the Warriors in the future, he also needs to develop his outside projection, because if these center players do not have the ability to shoot outside, then they will not be able to open up space on the court, which is not conducive to the continuation of the Warriors' system.
