The Golden State Warriors are one of the teams around the league that could use a shake up to their lineup. They have been very inconsistent over the first few weeks of the season and it is because the lack of depth that they have in the rotation. Golden State can choose to be aggressive at the NBA trade deadline and add another piece on the perimeter.
The New Orleans Pelicans could have the perfect fits. New Orleans is a franchise with their sights set on getting younger. They are not quite ready to compete in a difficult Western Conference and this will push them more towards any kind of trade at the NBA trade deadline.
Veteran players like JJ Redick and Eric Bledsoe will certainly be on the trading block. An intriguing name that has come up in NBA trade rumors in recent weeks is Lonzo Ball.
Both Lonzo Ball and JJ Redick would fit into what Golden State likes to do on the offensive end of the floor. Klay Thompson suffered a torn Achilles and this left Golden State with a need in the backcourt.
The Warriors are a team that likes to play fast and shoot the ball from deep. Steph Curry is having another elite season leading the Warriors but he could use some help to attract some of the defensive pressure.
As we approach the NBA trade deadline, teams that believe they are ready to win now will start to fill holes. The Warriors could be one of those teams and this deal could get done with the Pelicans.
