The second risk is his fit.
Giannis isn’t a great three-point shooter, although he has tremendously improved his shooting. He’s making 1.5 per game this season but shooting just over 30% from deep.
Again, those are both major improvements for the Greece-born forward.
On top of that, Giannis does best driving downhill with the ball.
On a team with Draymond Green and Stephen Curry, two players that like to dominate the game through their success in the pick-and-roll and ability to space the court and move around, it’d be tough for Giannis to be given the ball each possession and be put in positions where he’d put up similar numbers.
Hitting his prime, Giannis would certainly be worth it, and if the offer is on the table, it’s likely the Warriors accept it, but let’s not just assume trading for such a high-profile player wouldn’t come with several risks as well.
