Golden State Warriors Receive: C Myles Turner
Pacers Receive: F/G Andrew Wiggins, F Eric Paschall, 2021 first-round pick (No. 7 overall)
In the days leading up to the 2021 NBA Draft, there are reports that the Golden State Warriors and Indiana Pacers have had discussions centered around the No. 7 overall pick, which currently belongs to Golden State.
That has led many to believe that Turner could be on the Warriors radar this offseason. While fans would prefer an All-Star caliber player, Turner does fill multiple needs for Golden State, given his two-way abilities at the center position.
For the first trade scenario, I conducted a trade in which the Warriors keep James Wiseman, allowing him to develop under Turner for the future.
The idea of trading Turner is due to the Pacers realizing that Sabonis and Turner can’t coexist in the front court. So maybe the team isn’t focused on getting Wiseman, who would also clog the lane for Sabonis.

Instead of Wiseman being involved, Andrew Wiggins would be the main trade piece to make the money, along with Eric Paschall and the No. 7 overall selection in this year’s draft.
