You don?t pick up a nickname like ?the Dubs? without winning a lot of games. And since Stephen Curry won his first MVP trophy in 2014-15, that?s exactly what the Warriors have done. After winning 4 Championships in the last decade, the Golden State Warriors have established themselves as a historic team. But will their past success help them face an uncertain future?

Earlier today, Golden State announced that another long-time member of their front office is officially parting ways.?

After 10 years, fan-favorite walks away from Golden State?

The Warriors’ postseason hopes were cut short this year by LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers. Shortly thereafter, two-time Executive of the Year, Bob Myers stepped down as General Manager (GM) of the team. To add to the uncertainty, trade rumors have also been swirling around the team?s expensive core of players – namely, Draymond Green and Klay Thompson.?

The turmoil was furthered today as Golden State lost another keystone member of their staff. Former Warriors point guard and current director of players’ affairs and engagement, Shaun Livingston, announced that he is stepping away from his role to spend more time with his family.

During Shaun Livingston?s 5-year stint playing for the Warriors, they made the NBA Finals each time. However, he didn?t just help the team win; he also helped them develop. As a 10-year veteran, he provided on and off-court leadership to a then-young and upcoming Warriors roster.??

After retiring in 2019, Livingston was invited to join the front office in 2020, where he helped the Curry-led Dubs win their 4th championship.

Stephen Curry and the Warriors face uncharted waters?

During an interview last year, Livingston described mentoring as ?the most rewarding part of the job.? From coming off the bench for Steph to supporting Klay through his injury, Shaun Livingston wore many hats for the Warriors franchise. Picked 4th in the 2004 draft, Livingston was a master of the midrange, and his contributions as a rotation player and member of the front office have helped cement the Warriors’ legacy.

Now, with him departing, Golden State will certainly have big shoes to fill. With key members of the staff leaving and Steve Kerr entering the last year of his contract, new GM Mike Dunleavy Jr. has his work cut out for him.?

Can the Dubs make the adjustments to remain competitive for the rest of Stephen Curry?s prime? Let us know your thoughts!
