Kurtenbach: Warriors’ “Antiques Roadshow” is back — why Curry & Co. must slow-walk their way to playoffs

Warriors' Veteran Lineup Faces Challenges

The Golden State Warriors are preparing for the 2025-26 season with a restocked roster, but their veteran players are showing their age. Steph Curry is in his age-38 season, while Draymond Green will turn 38 in March, and newcomer Al Horford is 39.

The team's success relies heavily on these older players, who have been through many challenges in their careers. This puts the Warriors in a difficult position as they try to compete for a title with a roster that is getting older.

The Golden State Warriors are old. They have gray in their beards and remember dial-up internet — that kind of old.

The Warriors must find a way to manage the workload of their veteran players to ensure they can make a deep playoff run. With a mix of young and old players, the team will need to strike a balance between resting their veterans and competing at a high level.
