The Warriors look at the post-Curry era

1:31pm, 5 August 2025【Basketball】

On August 4, according to the Warriors' record, in the Kings and Warriors' trade discussions about Cuminga, the Warriors valued the Kings' unprotected first-round draft pick in 2030 and did not consider asking for young players, such as Keegan Murray and Ellis.

In this way, the Warriors are determined to prepare in advance for the reconstruction of Curry and Zhu Meng Green after retirement.

Think about that year, the Warriors selected Stephen Curry in the 7th pick in 2009, Klay Thompson in 2011, and Draymond Green in the 35th pick in 2012. With these three drafts, they created the cornerstone of the dynasty.

Now, the Warriors hold five first-round picks in 2026-2031. If the Kings give one, it will be six.

It seems that I want to replicate the success of "Spring Brothers" and create another champion dynasty.

Look at this year's Thunder, they formed the championship team through the draft, which made the Warriors more determined to follow the route of success that year. The Warriors' current plan is very obvious. Although Curry has two years left in the contract, considering Curry's current competitive state, it is very likely to play for another two years.

In the next 3-4 years, while Curry is still with the Warriors, he will try his best to make his influence possible to keep the team popular. At the same time, in recent years, the Warriors have selected the next wave of team building through the first round draft. After Curry retires, these potential rookies will make their mark and return to the championship ranks again.

I have to say that the Warriors' move will be long-term. Can they rise again and return to the peak in the future with these draft picks? Let's wait and see!
