The Atlanta Hawks and Golden State Warriors are both competing to earn a playoff spot in their respective divisions and a trade between the two teams could help them achieve that goal. The Hawks have been hot as of recently and they could be very active at the NBA trade deadline.
The Golden State Warriors are a team who could also be active at the NBA trade deadline, but they only have one true glaring need.
The Warriors mantra all season long has been about their lack of a reliable shooting guard to replace Klay Thompson, who tore his ACL prior to the season’s start.
One player the Warriors could have their sights set on is Atlanta Hawks shooting guard Bogdan Bogdanovic. Bogdanovic, 28, is a Serbia native who has the ability to be an effective shooter beyond the arc, which would surely be a nice addition to line up alongside Steph Curry.

Let’s take a look at what a potential deal between the Atlanta Hawks and Golden State Warriors could look like if this trade comes to fruition.
