The franchise made three trades on Thursday, two of which moved the Warriors into the first half of the second round, and secured them one player the team had its sights set on since the start of last season.
The Warriors got the guy they wanted from the outset. The team traded up for the 39th overall pick in the 2019 NBA Draft according to Shams Charania with the New Orleans Pelicans.
After losing in the 2019 NBA Finals and losing two of their three All-Stars to injury along the way, the Golden State Warriors head for the offseason with a need to re-configure and re-tool their roster.
The Warriors dynasty has been eviscerated, ruined, sent to the ash heap of history; at least, some version of that is how their 2019 NBA Finals loss to the Toronto Raptors has been portrayed.
