5 best trade packages Warriors can get for Andrew Wiggins amid latest reports

Golden State Warriors v Chicago Bulls
The Golden State Warriors are reportedly "most open" to trading forward Andrew Wiggins.

#3 Detroit Pistons

The Detroit Pistons are reportedly looking for a veteran to add a little more stability to the team. They also have a logjam at the center position with Jalen Duren, James Wiseman and Isaiah Stewart on the roster.

Detroit might be willing to engage the Golden State Warriors in a trade if Andrew Wiggins goes with a first-round pick for Stewart and Bojan Bogdanovic. “Beef Stew” could be the Dubs’ future starting center or a backup to Trayce Jackson-Davis.

Bogdanovic will flourish in Steve Kerr’s system. Surrounding Steph Curry with a 41.6% 3-point shooter will bode well for the Warriors. “Bogey” is 34 years old but he can arguably provide more than Wiggins, particularly in late-game situations.

Both Pistons players are team-friendly contracts which should benefit the Warriors as well.


#2 Indiana Pacers

The Indiana Pacers and Buddy Hield have reportedly not been on the same page for an extension. Golden State could take advantage of this and try to ship Andrew Wiggins and a first-round pick for Hield and Jalen Smith.

Hield’s bigger value may depend on what the Warriors are planning to do with Klay Thompson. If the Dubs let “Game 6 Klay” go as an unrestricted free agent, they may already have an in-house replacement.

Hield’s addition will immediately help the Warriors. He is another deadeye shooter who can start or come off the bench. The trio of Steph Curry, Thompson and Hield will be a nightmare to defend. Jalen Smith can come off the bench and will have a bigger role to play next season.

The Pacers can use Andrew Wiggins as a backup to Pascal Siakam or allow the two to work together in a small ball lineup. Golden State’s first-round pick will be coveted by Indiana.


#1 Chicago Bulls

The Chicago Bulls are reportedly going to be active leading into next month’s trade deadline. Golden State may try to engage in talks centered around Alex Caruso for Andrew Wiggins.

The Warriors could offer “Wiggs” and two future first-round picks for Caruso and Patrick Williams. Chicago didn’t offer Williams an extension so he will become an unrestricted free agent after this season. The Bulls could get value out of him by agreeing to a trade.

If Chicago insists on two first-round picks for Caruso, the trade might not happen at all. But if the Dubs are that desperate to contend for the championship in a healthy Steph Curry year, they may cave in.

DeMar DeRozan could also be likely gone by next month or the end of the season. Andrew Wiggins can slot in the small forward role and may regain his form outside of the circus that follows the Dubs. The two first-round picks will be the Bulls’ biggest reasons to agree to a trade.
