The Golden State Warriors could shake up the entire league with one of these trades.

This season has been nothing but disappointing for the Golden State Warriors. Their fifth straight trip to the NBA Finals has been followed by an injury-plagued and lottery-bound season.

The Warriors have had some brief glimmers of hope. Eric Paschall emerged as a rising star, surprising everyone by averaging 14.1 points as a second-round draft pick. His success is a direct result of all the injuries this team has suffered, opening up a path for Paschall to receive more opportunities.

Meanwhile, D’Angelo Russell has had a solid season. The young All-Star is having another career-high season and is looking to be the most valuable asset the Dubs have moving forward. He has the potential to be a longterm member of the team.

Still, Golden State has plummeted to the bottom of the league standings. The front office doesn’t seem to be in panic mode yet but there is reason to believe this franchise gets active before the trade deadline.

With this being said, the Warriors could choose to trade Russell as his value would certainly bring in a good return. Though the team has no current plans of trading D-Lo, they are reportedly willing to listen to offers.

It hasn’t been a very exciting season for the Warriors. Let’s have some fun by analyzing three league altering trades the Dubs could consider.
