2017 Golden State Warriors

The 2017 Golden State Warriors stand among the 2017 NBA champions — a team built to survive the grind of a long postseason and win four rounds when it mattered most. In Ring Holders Club, this squad appears in the draft pool with year-specific player ratings reflecting each member's contribution during that title run, not career averages.

Head coach Steve Kerr guided a starting five of Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Kevin Durant, Draymond Green, Zaza Pachulia. Kevin Durant led the group as the highest-rated contributor in our curated model, setting the tone on both ends of the floor.

Off the bench, Andre Iguodala provided the sixth-man punch that championship rotations need — the kind of high-minute reserve who keeps lineups fresh through long playoff series.

The 2016–17 season culminated in a Finals victory that added another chapter to NBA history. Playoff basketball in that year rewarded depth, matchups, and the ability to adjust series to series — qualities this roster embodied in our simulation data.

This title was the third consecutive championship for the Golden State Warriors, cementing a short-lived dynasty in the modern pace-and-space era, shaped by shooting and versatile lineups.

In Ring Holders Club you may draft any of these seven members — five starters, the sixth man, and the head coach — when their championship year appears on the spin wheel. That makes the 2017 Golden State Warriors a high-stakes reveal: Kevin Durant and Steve Kerr are premium picks, but role players like Zaza Pachulia can still swing a simulated series.
