The Golden State Warriors no longer have Kyle Korver to target in the trade market. That said, what shooters are still out there?

Never having a huge need for shooting behind arguably the league’s two best shooters, the Golden State Warriors could use a boost from behind the arc for their second unit, a second unit current in the bottom-five in threes per game.

Their bench provides just 3.1 triples per game. While that’s technically higher than their dead-last 2.0 threes per game last season, the Dubs could use more. Especially with the oft-injured Curry, the starters could use a dynamic spark for when their unanimous MVP isn’t on the court.

Kyle Korver could’ve been that spark, and the Dubs could’ve easily bought their way into the conversation for the sharpshooter. Korver, one of the greatest shooters in the NBA history, is now on the Utah Jazz. He was traded for two second-round picks and Alec Burks.

The Warriors could’ve easily thrown their 2019 first-round pick at the Cavs for Korver, yet they may not have thought their issues on the second unit are really there. That said, if the Dubs were to look to enhance their bench, the options are still there.

That said, let’s dive into five shooters the Dubs could still trade for in order to improve their bench.
