The Golden State Warriors can still make some moves before the season begins. Here are three trades that can complete the roster.

If you agree with the plethora of analysts who believe the Golden State Warriors are a fringe playoff team, you probably think the team needs to make a few more movies before the season begins if they truly want to build the next dynasty.

While I personally think the Warriors will be far better than most think – I do acknowledge this team has some holes they need to fill as soon as possible. The most glaring gap in the lineup is left by Klay Thompson, who will miss the season due to an Achilles injury.

The Warriors have no hope of replacing Thompson. But, they can add some much-needed depth to the rotation before entering the season. The front office has done well by acquiring Kelly Oubre Jr., Brad Wanamaker and Kent Bazemore – all of which will play a key role in helping the team compete throughout the year.

Still, there is space for one more quality asset. The Dubs can trade for a player utilizing the $9 million DPE they were granted in the wake of Thompson’s injury. Here are three trades they should consider to complete the roster.
