Skip Bayless of Fox Sports 1 shared his thoughts on the news.
Must admit it: Nick Young will make a good Warrior. Fearless shooter. Will mature in Dubs culture. And added Caspi too? Rich get richer.

Young has spent the last four seasons with the Lakers in an up and down fashion. However, last season under rookie head coach Luke Walton Young showed he is still able to perform at a high level.
The former USC Trojan shot 40% from three point land and averaged 13.2 points per game. Young’s game on the offensive end is very similar to Cleveland Cavs guard J.R. Smith as he has the ability to get hot in a hurry but also take some bad shots.
