Vince Carter recently shared his insights on the current state of the Golden State Warriors during an appearance on ‘Run It Back TV.’ The NBA veteran expressed his perspective on the team’s fragility, emphasizing the need for rejuvenation and strategic additions to their roster.

“You never can count these guys out, but you know, I think they are fragile. I think they’re fragile right now. And I think they need to, they need to find some youth in some office.”

“They’re young guys. I mean, Moody and Kaminga, I think they have potential, but my thing with Kuminga, for instance, I think they’re trying to make him be a newer version of Draymond instead of utilizing the skill that he has.”

“At best, I think they’re gonna be in the middle of the pack. And obviously, when you get to the playoffs, anything can happen because of their experience.”

Carter acknowledged that while one should never entirely count out a team with the Warriors’ history, he highlighted their current vulnerability. Suggesting that the team requires an injection of youthful energy and offensive prowess, he pointed out players like Zach LaVine as potential fits.

Carter touched upon the Warriors’ young talents like Moses Moody and Jonathan Kuminga, stressing the importance of utilizing their skills effectively rather than molding them into predefined roles.

Carter offered a nuanced view on Kuminga, indicating that the team might be pushing him to replicate Draymond Green’s style rather than allowing him to showcase his scoring abilities, something Kuminga himself desires. The former NBA star emphasized the need for synergy between the established superstars and emerging talents, urging the organization to nurture and mature their younger players.

In Carter’s assessment, the Warriors‘ current position in the middle of the pack could see improvement if they strategically integrate their experienced stars with the emerging talents. 

He suggested that Green’s role, both on and off the court, plays a significant part and that the team needs the best version of him for success. The Warriors, currently 12th in the Western Conference with an 18-21 record, face challenges, but with Draymond Green back, Carter believes their performance could see positive changes as the season progresses.


Draymond Green Is Set To Make A Return For The Warriors

Golden State Warriors’ forward Draymond Green is poised to make a significant return against the Memphis Grizzlies on Martin Luther King Jr. Day after missing 12 games due to an indefinite suspension. Green’s suspension, which began on December 13, saw the Warriors record an 8-8 performance in his absence.

The suspension stemmed from an incident where Green struck Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic. During the suspension period, Green remained separated from the team but returned to the Warriors’ facilities last Sunday, engaging in weightlifting sessions, practice, and scrimmages to regain in-game conditioning.

Despite Green’s recent 16-game absence, the Warriors struggled defensively, ranking second-worst in the league during that period, allowing 123.8 points per 100 possessions. The team faced communication issues and lacked trust, particularly evident in transition defense, where they ranked 26th since December 14.

The return of the four-time All-Star is expected to provide stability to a struggling Warriors team currently sitting in 12th place in the Western Conference with a record of 18-21. Green’s defensive prowess and leadership are anticipated to address the team’s defensive breakdowns and improve communication on the court.

Green’s impact extends beyond the defensive end, as his return is seen as a relief for star guard Stephen Curry, who faced increased offensive responsibilities in Green’s absence. Green’s role in reducing Curry’s burden and contributing to the team’s overall energy is highly anticipated.

As Green prepares to step back onto the court, the Warriors, who are currently 12th in the Western Conference, hope for a positive turnaround in their performance with the return of their defensive anchor.
