The pinnacle of Andrew Bogut’s career occurred in 2015 when he and the Golden State Warriors won the NBA championship.
When Bogut was traded to the Warriors in 2012, there wasn’t much of a celebration because the ailing big man was brought in as compensation for Monta Ellis, a favorite of the crowd.
Midway through the 2012–13 campaign, when the Warriors had won 47 games and were making their fifth consecutive trip to the playoffs, Bogut rediscovered his footing.
When he moved to Golden State, Steph Curry and Klay Thompson had already established themselves as the “Splash Brothers,” but it was Bogut who gave their defense a new lease of life under Mark Jackson, establishing the tone for the frontcourt and making an enduring impression on Golden State’s other founding member.
