The Golden State Warriors have decisions to make in the next several seasons, and with that in mind, sensible trades could come to the table regarding players that they may not be able to retain for the long haul.

They’ve collected a massive amount of prospects that should be valuable on the trade market.

The Golden State Warriors aren’t going to trade their Big 3, but aside from their stars, who shouldn’t be in any trade conversation?

The Dubs have Stephen Curry locked up for the next several seasons, but both Draymond Green and Klay Thompson will be free agents after the 2023-2024 season. Their extensions could raise some eyebrows about the direction the Dubs are headed.

Golden State has four rising prospects — Jordan Poole (by far the most developed of the four), Jonathan Kuminga, James Wiseman and Moses Moody. All four of those coupled with Andrew Wiggins will be needing new contracts in the next several years.

The Warriors won’t want to lose any in free agency, but there are some that should be off the table in trade talks as well. Considering that, let’s dive into 3 players who aren’t among the Big 3 yet should still be untouchable in trade talks.
