Golden State Warriors manage roster depth and injury recoveries

The Golden State Warriors are navigating roster challenges following an offseason focused on retaining veteran talent rather than major acquisitions. General Manager Mike Dunleavy Jr. indicated that while the team opted to bring back much of its previous roster, the front office remains aggressive and open to making talent additions during the season.

Amid these roster shifts, the team is managing significant injuries to Jimmy Butler and Moses Moody. Butler is recovering from a torn ACL, while Moody is rehabilitating a ruptured left patellar tendon. Reports suggest both players are progressing well, with Butler potentially aiming for a return before the February trade deadline.

To address depth concerns caused by these injuries, the Warriors have reportedly expressed interest in free agent Dalen Terry for a training camp invite. Additionally, GM Mike Dunleavy Jr. addressed Stephen Curry’s future, stating that while the franchise wants him to retire as a Warrior, the team would consider a trade if Curry specifically requested one.
