The Golden State Warriors are about three weeks away from the 2021 NBA Trade Deadline, and they should target any of these four players.

Despite falling out of playoff position, the Golden State Warriors, especially with the added seed in the playoffs, should still be gunning for a postseason berth. The Warriors may need to marginally improve their roster to get there though.

There are a few clear weaknesses, and it starts in their frontcourt.

With Marquese Chriss out for the season, the Warriors have yet to fill his position, and as we saw in February, it may force them to play small-ball lineups when James Wiseman and Kevon Looney go down.

While it may have been a fluke with Wiseman, Looney has been injury-prone for these last few seasons. They could also use a three-point shooting specialist that’s a bit better on the defensive end than Damion Lee.

Add in the need for a backup point guard better than Brad Wanamaker, and the team has several positions that could be filled as the 2021 NBA Trade Deadline draws near. The deadline is set for March 25.

That said, let’s dive into four dark horse trade targets the Warriors should put in an offer for.
