We’re going to cheat and just package West’s entire Golden State Warriors tenure into this final slide. He was only in the front office for six years (from 2011 to 2017), but he changed the course of NBA history in that brief period of time.

“West’s influence turned the Warriors from a league laughingstock to the league’s lodestar,” Dieter Kurtenbach wrote for the Mercury News. “His unwavering competitiveness — impossible to miss as a player — crept into every part of the organization as an executive.”

In his first two drafts with Golden State, the team picked Klay Thompson and Draymond Green. In 2013, the Warriors traded for Andre Iguodala. The next summer, 2014, they hired Steve Kerr to coach. That same year, he famously threatened to resign if an oft-rumored Kevin Love-for-Klay deal went through.

And in 2016, West helped convince one of the greatest players of all time, Kevin Durant, to join an already-established core that had just won 73 games in the prior regular season.
