NBA Trade Rumors: 5 Interesting destinations for Anthony Davis if he is traded

#4 Golden State Warriors

Golden State Warriors v Phoenix Suns

The Warriors are the team to beat in the NBA. They are the reigning NBA Champions the last two years and have been a threat to win it all. The Warriors seem a little stale or past their due date right now. It's not that they can’t or won’t win it all again this year they just don’t seem inspired at the moment.

They are second in the Western Conference at 29-14. However, they have lost twice to the Raptors. The Warriors got blown out in one of those matches. They have also been blown out by the Thunder, Bucks and the Lakers on Christmas Day. At times, even the best have to make adjustments or changes to stay on top.

The Warriors could offer two first round picks, Draymond Green and Shaun Livingston. Davis might be the piece that keeps Kevin Durant with the Warriors past this summer. Durant does have an opt-out clause for the summer of 2019. This potential deal would also eliminate any bad blood and bitterness that could still be lingering from the dispute between Green and Durant earlier this season. This deal would certainly ensure Golden State’s dominance with Davis as the man in the middle the Warriors lack at both ends of the floor.
