With the trade deadline approaching on Thursday, there are rumors swirling about teams that may be looking to make some big trades to bolster their rosters.
One of the rumors circulating involves Avery Bradley and the Golden State Warriors. The Warriors have been trying to add to their bench, and like the idea of Bradley coming over.
“The Warriors are trying to beef up their bench given wobbly play from Andre Iguodala, Patrick McCaw, Omri Casspi, and Nick Young. They inquired about Avery Bradley, but got nowhere, league sources say. That's not surprising; the Warriors have little to deal beyond minimum-salaried players, second-round picks starting in 2020, and first-rounders they obviously won't flip for bench guys.”
Given the little assets the Warriors have to trade, it’s going to be really hard to find much of an upgrade over the likes of Nick Young and Andre Iguodala.
The Warriors are last in the league in three-point shooting from the bench and Avery Bradley is averaging 1.9 three-pointers made per game.
But with Bradley probably out the question, the Warriors are going to have to turn somewhere else.
Another name that has been rumored has been Marco Belinelli from the Hawks who is shooting 37.1 percent from behind the arc this season.
The big question there again is if the Warriors have enough assets, or would be willing to part with enough assets to get him.
Even if the Warriors don’t pull off a trade at the deadline though, they are the clear cut favorite to win the NBA title again this year.
