The Golden State Warriors had the worst record in the NBA this season, but the team should be an elite squad again in 2020-21 with Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green, and Andrew Wiggins leading the charge as a foursome.

The Warriors will also have a top pick in the 2020 draft. General manager Bob Myers can either draft a player like Anthony Edwards out of Georgia or trade the pick for a proven player.

Despite Curry, Thompson, Green, and Wiggins making their debut as a foursome in 2020-21, though, the Warriors have some moves to make in free agency if they truly want to be a title contender again. With that said, according to Anthony Slater of The Athletic, the Warriors will prioritize the backup point guard position this offseason.

Draymond Green is a point forward who will handle the ball a ton. Andrew Wiggins will initiate plenty of offense. But Andre Iguodala, the calming assist-to-turnover expert, and Shaun Livingston, the perfect longtime Curry backup, are gone. Their passing acumen can’t be fully replaced. But it’s clear the Warriors must address that area of need. Sources indicate that backup point guard will be one of the front office’s offseason roster priorities.

Golden State wants to limit Curry's minutes in 2020-21 so he's fresh for the playoffs. It makes sense the organization is prioritizing the backup point guard position.

Curry only played in five games in 2019-20 due to a broken hand. Everyone expects the two-time MVP and three-time champion to be fresh moving forward since he essentially had this season off.

However, it's always good to have a high-caliber backup at the point guard spot, especially for a team like the Warriors that is looking to win more rings.
