IS RUDY GAY A GOOD F?

Will the Goln State Warrrs sign veteran Rudy Gay NBA ee agency after he got bought out by the Oklahoma Cy Thunr? * warrior gay *

One such piece — and a highly-predictable one, at that — is veteran forward Rudy Gay, who was recently waived by the Oklahoma Cy Thunr, after beg ed as filler two different offseason tras: first when the Utah Jazz shipped him to the Atlanta Hawks the John Colls al, and then when the Hawks sent him to the Thunr the Patty Mills tra. Dpe beg a 17-year veteran — he was drafted one year after Chris Pl, and one pick ahead of Patrick O’Bryant — Gay has never shared an NBA locker room wh any Warrrs. Not only have they played (and ached) agast him for years, but Gay was teammat wh Steph Curry and Klay Thompson on the Team USA squad that won gold at the 2014 FIBA World Cup, and also teammat wh Curry (and Andre Iguodala) on the gold medal-wng 2010 team.

Perhaps most importantly, Gay spent four seasons — four recent seasons, crilly — playg for the San Anton Spurs and Steve Kerr’s mentor, Gregg Popovich.

If the Warrrs are terted Gay, you n bet that Kerr and Pop have talked about , and about how he handled the swch om high-volume starter/srer to veteran bench piece. That is, theory, the biggt benef of Gay: beg a tsty and smart vet that n fill the Iguodala role. Which is good, bee ’s unclear if Gay has anythg left the tank on the urt.

WARRRS COULD PURSUE RUDY GAY IF WAIVED BY THUNR

It’s easy to make the se for Gay, sce the Warrrs rotatn seems pretty set as is, wh an 11-player rotatn of Curry, Pl, Thompson, Wiggs, Green, Kumga, Moody, Kevon Looney, Gary Payton II, Dar Šarić, and Cory Joseph. If the Dubs want Gay, he’d probably be an easy target.

Here’s a staggerg stat: Gay is 68th NBA history regular season gam played, wh 1, 120. There’s also a cent chance that Gay go unsigned, and that the Dubs uld brg him to trag mp on a non-guaranteed al to get a better look at him. Should the Warrrs sign Rudy Gay?

WERE THE SPARTANS GAY? HOMOSEXUALY SPARTA, ANCIENT GREECE

SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH - JANUARY 01: Andrew Wiggs #22 of the Goln State Warrrs driv to Rudy Gay #8 of the Utah Jazz durg the send half of a game at Vivt Smart Home Arena on January 01, 2022 Salt Lake Cy, Utah.

The move is hardly a surprise given the Thunr’s surpl of ntracted players, leavg Gay as a ee agent after he was ially alt by the Utah Jazz to the Atlanta Hawks a tra for John Colls. Dpe his experience and potential f wh the anchise, the Goln State Warrrs should be wary of signg newly-available ee agent Rudy Gay. Acrdg to The Athletic’s Anthony Slater last week, Gay is “someone the Warrrs have had tert the past” and that “he’s a name to monor”.

But that’s not to say his acquisn wouldn’t e wh Gay #8 of the Utah Jazz shoots a three-pot shot over Jordan Poole #3 of the Goln State Warrrs durg a game January 2022. Henrson/Getty Imag)Goln State have recently signed another power-forward/small-ball center, Dar Saric, that will fill a siar role to that of what Gay theoretilly uld. Whether ’s Gay or anyone else, any signg for the the anchise is now about providg surance and pth rather than the set abily to provi 15-20+ mut each night.

WARRRS ADD FIRST OPENLY GAY EXEC TO FRONT OFFICE

Given Gay’s cle over the past two seasons, there’s genue qutn marks on how much impact he n have regardls.

Perhaps that’s the perfect rult — maybe Gay isn’t a regular rotatn player anymore and n simply fill for a few mut at a pch when jury and/or foul trouble hs. Gay averaged 14.
