#2 Jordan Bell

In his rookie season, Jordan Bell proved to be a reliable power forward for Steve Kerr who could also play at the center spot and give efficient minutes. Unfortunately, his sophomore season wasn't a step-up as they'd have expected.

His shooting percentage fell to 51% from a respectable 62% in his first year, while his scoring average also saw a notable decline of 4.6 ppg to 3.3 ppg.

“Jordan Bell is one of those guys who has got that energy,” said Andre Iguodala. “He thrives off the spotlight. He enjoys being in those moments and people are watching him.”

Despite getting decent minutes in the post-season due to DeMarcus Cousins' absence, Bell could only average a meager 2.7 ppg across the 15 games he played.

It can be argued that there's not much space for a talent to grow on a stacked Warriors roster, but it was apparent throughout the regular season and playoffs that opportunities were always there. Bell just didn't make the most of them.
