Despite his reputation as a malady in the league, Nick Young finally agreed to join the Golden State Warriors — but that didn't come without some recruiting effort from the team's best players.
Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant, and Draymond Green all were part of his recruiting process, ensuring the free agent that he was wanted in the organization, according to Tania Ganguli of the Los Angeles Times.
Green was seen hanging out with Young late on Monday, hinting a new addition with the caption “Warriors?” in his Snapchat video. So far, Green is 2-for-2 on his recruiting efforts the past two seasons.
Young's agent Mark Bartelstein told ESPN's Ryen Russillo on The Russillo Show that his client was avidly recruited by four different teams over five days, but that Young ultimately walked away impressed from a meeting with Steve Kerr and company, making it known that he was a piece the organization had in mind to complete their equation.
The Warriors now only have two remaining spots to fill their roster, with the emphasis shifting to the center position, once again looking at the veteran minimum for those last two spots.
