Buckle up, free agency season is quickly about to get underway. With the start of the NBA’s free agency period looming, rumors and reports are already circulating about potential targets for the Golden State Warriors.
One player that’s being linked to the Warriors before free agency officially gets underway is free agent forward Dario Saric. According to a report from Monte Poole of NBC Sports Bay Area, Saric to the Warriors is “likely.”
Via @MontePooleNBCS on Twitter:
Per multiple sources: UFA Dario Sarić to Warriors is high probability – 'likely' according to one source
Why? 1) Stretch 4; 2) High hoops IQ w/sound all-around skills; 3) Age (29) fits team's win-now approach that borders on desperation

In his sixth season in the league, Saric averaged 6.4 points on 45.8% shooting from the field and 39.1% shooting from beyond the arc with 3.6 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 14.1 minutes over 57 games with the Suns and Thunder.
With tight cap restraints, the Warriors will have to get creative with their open roster spots to lure players to the Bay Area on a veteran minimum contract.
Free agency will officially open at 3 p.m. PT on Friday afternoon.
