After the Golden State Warriors most-recent blowout loss to the Los Angeles Clippers, it’s clear they need to make a few moves at the 2021 Trade Deadline.

The Golden State Warriors, over the last few weeks, haven’t quite been the same team that originally got them into playoff position.

James Wiseman has struggled and was benched while role players like Kelly Oubre Jr. and Andrew Wiggins not quite stepping up like two-time MVP Stephen Curry have needed them to. Draymond Green’s inability to shoot or score is also an issue.

The Warriors have the 2021 NBA Trade Deadline coming up. Before March 25, they need to make their move, and with Bob Myers looking to capitalize on Curry’s elite play, it could be a relatively active deadline.

Golden State has lost four straight and five of their last eight.

The energy just isn’t there, and as we saw with Curry against the Clippers, this team needs some encouragement. They could also use more frontcourt talent and a more consistent threat at the two.

That said, let’s dive into three targets that could get Golden State over that figurative hump and into a playoff position.
