To say that this has been a challenging season for the Warriors is an understatement. Not only were superstars such as Steph Curry and Klay Thompson rules out for the season with long term injuries, but the San Francisco-based team find themselves at the foot of the Western Conference standings, with just 15 wins and a massive 50 losses.

While this nightmare season may have been one to forget for Warriors’ fans, there is one category in which this franchise stands out from its competition, being the only franchise in the NBA to not have any pending 2020 free agents. In fact, all 13 players in the Warriors’ current roster have deals with the franchise extending into the 2020-21 season.

Key players such as Curry, Thompson, Draymond Green, and Kevon Looney all have multiple years left on their contracts, while 2019 NBA Draft picks Jordan Poole, Alen Smailagic and Eric Paschall all received standard rookie contracts that remain valid for multiple seasons.

After spending time with G League side Santa Cruz Warriors, Juan Toscano-Anderson and Ky Bowman received multi-year deals with the Warriors. While trades could certainly cause some changes to the Warriors’ lineup, free agencies remain a non-issue for the struggling five-time NBA Champions.
