The Warriors signed 5 people in a row in one go, and the 147-year-old "Four Dead Olds" were released! Unfortunately, the Kumingjia transaction is still progressing 0, but there are still 4 quotes to choose from.

5 players in a row

After waiting for the entire offseason, the Warriors finally signed 5 new players in one go, completing the upgrade and creation of the core lineup when the training camp in the new season is about to begin.

Firstly, according to ESPN famous reporter Shams, Horford has signed a multi-year contract with the Warriors, and he will start his 19th NBA season as the Warriors starting center in the new season.

Although Horford is 39 years old, this is still an important strengthening for the Warriors, who let go of meritorious Looney in the offseason and have obvious shortcomings in the team's inside rotation.

Horford averaged 9 points, 6.2 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game in the regular season, with a three-point shooting percentage of 36.3%, and his three-point shooting percentage increased to 40% in the playoffs.

This is also a microcosm of Horford's outstanding shooting performance in the past three seasons. In the past three seasons, Horford has been able to hit 100+ three-pointers in each season, and his shooting percentage is as high as 41%, which is almost perfect for Zhu Meng Zhu and Butler.

not only has diversity inside and outside on the offensive end, but Horford is also completely trustworthy on the defensive end and is an underrated elite defender.

In the 24-25 season, Horford limited his opponent's shooting percentage to 46%, ranking 7th in the league. At the same time, Horford ranked sixth in the league in defense singles in the 24-25 season, which is of quality and quantity guaranteed, and is still one of the best big men to switch defenses on the outside.

Looking at his entire career, Horford is one of only four players in NBA history to hit at least 900 three-pointers and send 1,300 blocks. The other three are Rashid Wallace, Dalow and Clifford Robinson.

Therefore, the Warriors regard it as the most important signing this summer, and ESPN also gave an A-high score for this signing as soon as possible.

Horford was considering retirement for a while during the offseason, but was eventually persuaded by the Warriors to join and will win the starting center position.

In addition to the Warriors, the old club Celtics also hopes to renew Horford's contract, but due to incidents such as Tatum's serious injury, Horford finally chose the Warriors.

After signing Horford, Shams followed up and revealed that two old players, Payton Jr. and Melton, promised to join the Warriors.

Among them, Melton's return value is no less than Horford's joining. Before suffering a major injury last season, he once held the starting No. 2 position with the Warriors, forming a perfect complement to Curry.

Peton Jr. is not as capable as Melton, but she is very familiar with Cole's system and has good defensive value. At the same time, the Warriors hold their bird rights and can become the "meat ticket" in Kumingga's future transactions to balance salary. After completing the introduction of three core new players, Shams revealed one after another that the Warriors first signed No. 56 pick guard Will Richard with a four-year contract, which included the 2-year guarantee part.

As for Tuxi, who was selected at the 52nd pick, the Warriors chose to sign with him with a two-way contract.

"Dead Four Elders" 147 years old

As the Warriors signed 5 players in one go, the team's official roster contract players soared from 9 to 13, of which a total of 147-year-old "Dead Four Elders" were the first to lock in 4 starting positions.

"Death 4 Old": Curry is 37 years old, Butler is 36 years old, Dream Chasing 35 years old and Horford is 39 years old;

The remaining 9 formal contracts: Boger, Moody, Podette, TJD, Santos, Payton Jr., Melton, Hilder and Richard.

If Kumingga finally signs a contract of about 22 million, the Warriors will have the salary space to sign the 15th man, and it is expected to be Curry Jr.

Kuminga has 4 offers to choose from

Although several new players have determined to join the Warriors, they have not signed a specific contract and are still waiting for the solution of Kuuminga's problem.

The Warriors' deal negotiations with the Suns and Kings around Cuminga are still 0 progress, but the Warriors still provide Cuminga with 4 quotations, namely a one-year qualification quotation of 7.9 million US dollars, a two-year US dollars (team option), a three-year US dollars (team option), and a three-year US dollars (team option) and a three-year 54 million.

The current controversy between the two sides is that Kumingga wants a high salary, but does not want the team options in the contract. If the basic salary is, he wants to add the player options. The Warriors cannot meet the former and do not want to add the player options in the contract.
