2020 NBA Trade Deadline: 5 best-case-scenario trades for the Golden State Warriors
The Golden State Warriors are just hours away from the trade deadline, and they need to start making some forward-thinking moves.
The NBA trade deadline is at 3 pm EST on February 6. The Golden State Warriors have until then to get any deal done.
It seems unlikely the Warriors make a blockbuster trade, potentially moving D’Angelo Russell. However, given the Knicks and Wolves incompetence, you can never completely rule out that overwhelming trade package being offered.
On the other hand, the Warriors have veterans on one-year deals that will walk this summer.
Like they did with former center Willie Cauley-Stein, Golden State might as well sell-high on those two, Glenn Robinson III and Alec Burks, while they’re both in the midst of the best year of their careers.
It’ll boil down to what other teams will offer. But, with a race to become marginally better than the next team up, there should be plenty of suitors for both forwards and Russell. Yet, at the end of the day, Golden State will still be one of the league’s best teams next year regardless.
That said, let’s breakdown five trades and how they may be part of the best-case scenario for Golden State.
