Predicting The Golden State Warriors’ Final Roster, Depth Chart For 2016-17

Point Guard

1. Stephen Curry
2. Shaun Livingston
3. Phil Pressey

The Warriors return the two-time reigning MVP to the point guard position. Stephen Curry has quickly developed into one of the NBA’s true superstars, and he’ll continue to fill that role this season.

Even with Golden State’s surprise offseason addition, Curry will remain the go-to guy in this lineup.

Even when he’s not on the court, the Warriors possess an exceptional backup in Shaun Livingston. While he’s getting up there in age and doesn’t offer much from deep, the 31-year-old combo guard is an integral part of the second unit.

He brings immense value with his smart, instinctive play and ability to play both guard positions.

However, even with those two, I still think the Warriors hold on to a third point guard to start the year. That means veteran Phil Pressey makes the roster–likely as the 15th and final man. He shouldn’t see much action, but cracks the final roster nonetheless.

His experience and scrappy play should help him stick around, at least for the short term.

There won’t be too many surprises coming from this group–just a ton of production.
