Golden State Warriors<\/a> general manager Mike Dunleavy<\/a> Jr. recently spoke to the media Friday about the team’s plans as free agency looms.<\/p>\n

Specifically, Dunleavy Jr. talked about the chances of both Kirstaps Porzingis<\/a> and Al Horford<\/a> returning.<\/p>\n

“Yeah, those are guys that we definitely would love to have back,” said<\/a> Dunleavy Jr.<\/p>\n

“They add an element to our team that we haven’t had in the past. Al, specifically with his size, his shooting, his leadership. KP is just a unique, unique player on both ends of the court.”<\/p>\n

Given the Warriors’ lack of frontcourt depth besides Draymond Green<\/a>, Golden State would seemingly welcome a reunion with either or both of the big men.<\/p>\n

Of the two, Horford’s path to returning seems to be the most straightforward, as the 19-year veteran holds a player option to return to Golden State for a second season.<\/p>\n

As for Porzingis, he’ll hit restricted free agency once again after being acquired in the trade that sent Jonathan Kuminga<\/a> to the Atlanta Hawks<\/a>.<\/p>\n
