Kendric Davis could and should be called up to give the Golden State Warriors a fresh look. He's been amazing in the G-League and just seems to have a feel for the game. Named G-League player of the week January 30th, the crafty shooting guard has inside and outside game. My only concern is his size. He's listed at 5'11, 180 lbs., but the eye-test makes that measurement suspect. Though, these days who can trust their own eyes when we are told by puppet politicians an insurrection was no more than a peaceful Capitol Building sightseeing tour. But I digress.
Bottom Line, I know the Warriors need size to defend opponents, but why not take a shot at unleashing what I see as an upcoming Mighty Mouse the likes of past little men phenoms (Monta Ellis 6'3 he's not.) You can't teach size, but you also can't teach speed and quickness. I believe Davis has the quickness, accuracy, and smarts to help the Warriors contend down the stretch. If you can't slow down a bigger opponent, why not just run them off the court with overwhelming ball movement and scoring quickness of past Championship Warriors fame.
Youth brings athleticism, quickness, and hustle. Davis brings all that and much more. Let Mighty Mouse step in for Chris Paul and see if his G-league success carries over to the big league. Come'on Steve Kerr, make that call and see if you possibly have a missing puzzle piece lying under the table. If it fits and the Warriors make the playoffs, who knows!
