Warriors all-time starting lineup by Win Shares
From the early 1950s teams to the mid-1970s teams, to the current dynasty, the Warriors have had a lot of incredible players come through their organization. Creating an all-time starting lineup for the Warriors is no easy task but using Win Shares, an all-in-one measure of career production from Basketball-Reference, helps separate elite from the very best.
Warriors all-time starting lineup: Point guard, Stephen Curry, 128.0 Win Shares
Stephen Curry is the best player in the history of the Golden State Warriors and has the highest Win Shares total in team history. Curry has played his entire career with the Warriors which does play to his advantage but he has certainly earned his spot here. Our fantasy lineup is going to have a lot of spacing and Curry gets us off to a very good start.
While he is still currently playing in the league, his 128 Win Shares rank 39th all-time. With how efficient Curry’s game is, that ranking will most likely go up before he’s done. Due to the fact that the Warriors were running two timelines during half of Curry’s career, this is even more impressive impressive. The Warriors have not been fully invested in making sure Curry has had enough talent around the team since Durant left. Instead, they opted to build for a post-Curry timeline where they can still be competitive for a title and make the playoffs regularly.
