Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

[DanSchwartzgan]

 
The only thing I see out there that might be palatable would be Butler for three to four of our guys.  Golden State has a ton of open roster spots and could help us restock the draft cupboard.  I think Gafford and Klay make sense there.  I'm not sure I see it with PJ if Draymond returns.  But, you need PJ's money in the deal  

One way of solving my concern about PJ's fit in GSW is to send him to NOP and Murphy to Golden State.  Murphy/Gafford/Klay make much more sense for the Warriors.

I'd want to add Martin to the outgoing PJ and take back expiring  Jordan Hawkins (another reclamation project on a short term deal?).  GSW gets Klay, Gafford and Murphy and NO gets PJ, Martin and unfortunately most of the outgoing draft compensation from GSW.  So, Dallas gets two expiring contracts (though, I could also see Hawkins to GSW and Moody to Dallas).
