The Golden State Warriors are gearing up for an offseason focused on bolstering their roster around their veteran core, consisting of Stephen Curry, Jimmy Butler, and Draymond Green, in hopes of returning to championship contention. After a disappointing playoff exit against the Minnesota Timberwolves, exacerbated by Curry's hamstring injury, the Warriors face critical decisions ahead.

With limited salary cap space and the future of restricted free agent Jonathan Kuminga in question, the team's priority will be improving their backup point guard position. Notably, they are among the frontrunners to potentially sign Russell Westbrook in free agency, who had a resurgence with the Denver Nuggets last season, averaging 13.3 points, 6.1 assists, and 4.9 rebounds.
