Why The Golden State Warriors Do The Deal
The Warriors may or may not play Thybulle in the playoffs. They won’t play Baldwin Jr.
After all, he’s a rookie. This franchise is not going to rely on him to play meaningful minutes in the postseason. At the moment, they’re not even positioned to make a deep run anyway.
That can change. This is the NBA’s defending champion – surely, they’re capable of playing better basketball than they have this season. They may just need a midseason addition to give them a boost in the arm.
Thybulle could be that addition. He’s one of the best perimeter defenders in the NBA.

Meanwhile, Warriors Head Coach Steve Kerr has a knack for finding creative ways to use players with limitations. He may even find a way to work Thybulle into a Finals rotation.
