Veterans in the backcourt are expected to join the Warriors, and are they already overcrowded in the backcourt?

According to reports from Ary, a very active NBA reporter, a source revealed to him that veteran backcourt Malcolm Brogdon, who is currently in free agency, is expected to sign with the Golden State Warriors. According to previous news from another NBA reporter Jake Fischer, the Warriors have been paying close attention to Brogden's updates, and he is also very likely to join the Warriors this summer, but all this will not be completed until the Jonathan Kuminga problem is resolved.

In the NBA regular season last season, Brogden was affected by injuries and made a total of 24 appearances for his former club, Washington Wizards, 13 of which were started. He averaged 23.5 minutes per game, with averaging 12.7 points, 3.8 rebounds, 4.1 assists, 0.5 steals and 0.2 blocks, and 1.6 turnovers and 1.2 fouls. His shooting percentage was 43.3%, three-point shooting percentage was 28.6%, and free throw shooting percentage was 88%. Brogden's performance last season was not ideal, his offensive efficiency was not ideal, and his stability in outside shooting was also very poor. He showed a certain passing ability and organizational ability, but he was not that outstanding. On the other hand, injuries have a very big impact on Brogden. Not only does he perform poorly, but his attendance rate has also been greatly problematic due to injuries.

For the Warriors, their current lineup actually includes a lot of backcourt players, and they are expected to sign De 'Anthony Melton and Gary Payton II. Although Brogdon, Melton and Payton Jr. have completely different characteristics, they are all players with limited figures and their positions on the court are relatively fixed, and it is impossible for them to appear on the court at the same time. It sounds a bit worrying and a bit inexplicable operation.

The most important thing is that Kumingga's situation is still in a pending state so far. No one knows how the situation will develop. Whether Kumingga can stay in the team and whether he can stay in the team with a long-term contract is also a huge question mark. If Kumingga's problem is not solved, the Warriors will not be able to sign other players in the true sense, because this will be closely related to the team's total salary and the amount of the final offer the team may give Kumingga. While Cuminga has not signed the contract, the Warriors are still signing, and Melton and Al Horford have also been waiting for a lot of time. Then the question arises, what exactly did Brogden think? Why did he choose to join the Warriors?
