This season, the Golden State Warriors’ struggles have left most fans and analysts believing they need to make a trade. They’re 12th in the Western Conference and have failed to show consistency in their offensive and defensive approach throughout the season. That has led to them losing multiple games from winning positions.
As such, there is a belief the Warriors could look to the trade market to try to salvage their season. However, opinion is split on whether Mike Dunleavy Jr. should dangle some of the team’s younger talent or look to flip a veteran player such as Andrew Wiggins.
According to Paul George, who was speaking via his “Podcast P” podcast, a potential deal that would send Jonathan Kuminga to the Toronto Raptors in exchange for Pascal Siakam would make sense.
It’s worth noting the Warriors are reportedly hesitant to move Kuminga, especially after his early season performances.
“The Warriors are also known to be resistant to the idea of trading Kuminga, who was selected with the No. 7 overall pick in 2021,” Marc Stein recently wrote in his SteinLine newsletter.
