Writer Peter O'Keefe argues that the Golden State Warriors should consider replacing two-way forward Malevy Leons with Alex Toohey. Toohey impressed in the Santa Cruz Warriors' 127-108 G League victory over the Stockton Kings, recording 18 points, eight rebounds, four assists, two steals, and one block across 32 minutes of action.

O'Keefe notes that the 27-year-old Leons has seen minimal rotation minutes despite injuries to wings Jimmy Butler and Moses Moody. In contrast, Toohey, a 22-year-old former 52nd overall draft pick who previously lost his two-way deal after a knee injury, could reclaim that roster spot.
