Golden State Warriors: 10 league-breaking offseason moves to make

6. Al Horford (Trade)

Now it’s time to analyze a potential trade. Al Horford’s tenure with the Philadelphia 76ers hasn’t been great and it’s obvious he is one of their most expendable assets moving forward if the team wants to salvage its All-Star duo of Ben Simmons and Joel Embiid.

Horford is a veteran center who can do multiple things on the court. He can play above the arc, shooting above 35 percent from the 3-point line for his career, and is a solid distributor with the ball in his hands. Horford is among the better big men in terms of creating plays for others.

His wide frame makes him a great screener and though the NBA is moving away from the post, he has that in his game as well. Adding Horford to the Warriors is an easy way to fill the void at the center position and bring depth to their rotation.

What would they have to give up in order to acquire him? Well, it would likely be Andrew Wiggins. Horford is on a massive contract that won’t be easy to move. Thankfully, the Warriors have enough offensive firepower in Klay Thompson and Stephen Curry – meaning they could reasonably ship Wiggins for a bigger area of need like Horford. The gap left behind by Wiggins could then be filled through the NBA Draft or free agency by using the MLE.
