In today's Warriors news update, Andre Iguodala is attempting to sway his former teammate at Arizona, free agent big man Channing Frye, to join forces with him again in Oakland.
According to Diamond Leung of the Bay Area News Group, Iggy is doing his best to present the Golden State Warriors as an attractive fit for the former Phoenix Suns standout:

If the Golden State Warriors decide to pass on acquiring Kevin Love from the Minnesota Timberwolves, Frye might represent the next best option on the market when it comes to a big man with shooting prowess.
Frye shot 50.9% on two-pointers and 37% on three-pointers for the Suns in 2013-14, averaging 14.2 points and 6.5 rebounds per game while playing all 82 games in a season for the first time in his eight-year NBA career.
Iguodala and Frye's familiarity with each other would be another huge bonus, adding an extra dimension of rhythm to the team both on offense and defense.
