Trade 1:
Warriors Receive:
Lu Dort
Kenrich Williams
OKC Receive:
Kyle Kuzma
Washington Recieve:
Andrew Wiggins
2024 Lac Frp
2025 Warriors frp
2025 Miami Lottery protected frp
Reasoning:
With Andrew Wiggins downfall the warriors are actively looking for trade options. We've seen in the past that curry plays at his best when he is paired with a 3 and D guard so that is why they acquire lu dort. This trade deadline Okc made no major moves. They had an abundance of picks remaming wheter they trade up or use them it would not hurt them if they pull of a trade for kyle kuzma. He has one of the best contracts in the nba. His 25 millions may seem high but it will decrease to well bellow 20 million. For Washington this deadline they were looking for 2 frps for Kuzma. This deal gets them 3.
Trade 2:
Warriors receive:
Jonas Valanciuas
Larry Nance Jr.
2025 swap in favour of Nola
Nola receive:
Chris Paul
2025 Swap in favour of nola
2026 Atl srp
2027 Warriors unprotected first
2028 Atl srp
Reasoning:
Chris Paul is a negative trade asset. He is on a non guranteed contract but I believe that it would be better for them to keep his contract and look for a trade. Jonas Valanciuas is not the ideal center but his versatilty could work well with steph. He has the abilty to post up or to stretch the floor. They could maybe make a rotation where Draymond is more of a Charles Barkley type of Pf and Jonas would help out by stretching the floor. For Nola they get a good veteran leader and his playmaking would work really well with Zion's finishing
Trade 3:
Warriors Receive:
Jordan Clarkson
2028 frp in favour of Utah
2029 frp in favour of Utah
Jazz Recieve:
Gary Payton
TJD
2028 frp in favour of Utah
2029 frp in favour of Utah
2030 second round pick
Reasoning:
The warriors give up Gary Payton and Rookie TJD. A lot of people are huge fans of TJD game but to me I dont see much potenial. I feel like if they warriors manage to trade him for a veteran like Clarkson it would benefit their squad a lot. For Utah they could see potenial in TJD game and agree to do the trade
