One year removed from an NBA title, the Warriors were ousted in the West semifinals by the Lakers.
That loss triggered a summer of transition for the Warriors. General manager Bob Myers, who orchestrated four championships, stepped down from his role. Mike Dunleavy Jr. was promoted and now runs basketball operations for Golden State.
Defensive pillar Draymond Green declined a player option to enter free agency, and nobody was quite sure what the future held for the longtime Warrior. Green ultimately agreed to a four-year, $100 million contract to remain with the franchise.
