The Golden State Warriors (46-36) finished 10th in a loaded Western Conference last season. As we all know, if it was not for the shooting prowess of Stephen Curry, the Golden State would have been a lottery team last season and the USA men's basketball team would have lost to Serbia in the Olympics semifinals.

Now, he must deal with a new challenge of playing a full NBA season without his Splash Brother Klay Thompson after Thompson was signed by the Dallas Mavericks.

However, the Warriors were able to add some veteran help in the offseason by signing Buddy Hield, De'Anthony Melton, and Kyle Anderson (Li Kai'er). Plus, Golden State had one pick in this year's NBA Draft.

Round 2, Pick 22: Quinten Post - C - Boston College. 7'0", 240 lbs (17 ppg, 8.1 rpg, 2.9 apg, 1.7 bpg, 43.1% 3-PT FG%).

As you can tell by his last name, Post does most of his damage on post moves. However, he can step out beyond the arc and shoots 3-pointers with above-average accuracy.

Overview: Post may not see much playing time at center behind Kevon Looney and Trayce Jackson-Davis. However, that will give Post time to develop. He may see some time in certain situations due to Golden State being undersized with both Looney and Jackson-Davis playing at center being three inches smaller than Post. He would also see some time if Draymond Green is suspended like last season.

Grade: C+.
