This is what is called "roots."
Without "roots", a person won't wither away like plants or trees.
But in moments of championship glory, Warriors fans surely prefer those players with "roots."
Of course, in the NBA... obtaining "roots" in a team doesn't only happen through being drafted.
Because during the draft, apart from those top talents who were pre-determined, no player can control their own fate, so serving a team long-term is also a way to establish "roots."
In the NBA, "roots" are very important, yet they are also unimportant.
For instance, if you can build a dynasty in different cities each time you change "roots" (three consecutive championships), in the future, scholars will naturally defend your legacy.
You might even gain "roots" in these different cities.
