No. 3

This potential deal doubles down on stripping the Warriors depth in exchange for Anthony Davis. Iguodala and Livingston bring veteran savvy to the team, but they likely aren’t in the team’s long-term plan so parting ways with the duo before they truly decline seems like a wise move.

Shipping away Jordan Bell, Jacob Evans and the promising Alfonzo McKinnie would hurt. Bell has been inconsistent, Evans is slowly improving in the G-League, but McKinnie has shown flashes of being a vital piece of the Warriors rotation.

The Pelicans would likely want a package of promising young players and this trio could fit the bill. The Warriors could also throw in some future draft picks to help sweeten the deal.
