Warriors Consider Bringing Andre Iguodala Off the Bench

NBA via Philadelphia 76ers(NEW YORK) — Despite being one of the highest paid players on the team and a seasoned veteran, first-year Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr is strongly considering bringing Andre Iguodala off the bench.
The Warriors are one of the more talented and deep teams in the NBA, and Kerr thinks bringing Iguodala off the bench could best serve the team as he is one of the best all-around defensive players in the entire NBA.
“I could make an argument he’s been our best player, especially over the last two weeks,” Kerr told the Bay Area News Group. “Right now in the scrimmages, he’s the most impactful player that we have. The last couple of weeks, he has sort of determined who’s winning [the scrimmage] depending on what side he’s on.”
“So from that standpoint, you could call me an idiot. If he’s my best player and I’m not starting him, maybe I’m the one who’s wrong,” he continued. “The argument is absolutely there.”
Prior to last season, Iguodala signed a four-year deal with the Warriors worth $48 million.
