The Golden State Warriors should be monitoring these three players as they have sneaky good potential at the trade deadline.

This has been a strange year for trades. Well, it’s been a strange season in general. But, with James Harden being dealt in a four-team blockbuster, the Golden State Warriors could be the next notable figures to scour the market.

The Dubs need an extra kick if they want to compete for real. While riding Stephen Curry to the highest usage rate of his career has helped them weather the storm to a 6-6 start, the Warriors are missing the firepower needed to truly contend.

To be frank, it’s still uncertain if competing for a championship is something the Warriors actually want to do this season. They know this roster isn’t powerful enough to win a championship under normal circumstances and it might be better to hold off until next season when Klay Thompson returns.

Yet, there is always the possibility the Dubs take a chance on one of these players who could potentially hit the trading block. These players won’t cost too much to acquire and can all provide a much-needed spark to the Dubs playoff hopes.
