One player player Warriors must trade in 2024 NBA offseason.

The Warriors need to consider moving this player.

The Golden State Warriors tried as hard as they could to get out of the play-in. One would think that 46 wins and a blistering 23-11 finish to the season would’ve been enough to avoid the fate. Or, at the very least, get into the top half of the play-in tournament and have two tries to win one game. Unfortunately, that didn’t happen. The club spent the majority of the season at tenth in the standings and finished that way after the regular season concluded. After a loss to the Sacramento Kings ended their season, they have plenty of offseason and trade questions looming over their heads.

The Warriors have tried to merge their dynasty spearheaded by Steph Curry, Draymond Green, and Klay Thompson with their team of the future. It worked in 2022 when they won the championship. But now Golden State seems stuck. They aren’t good enough to compete for a championship as currently constructed, but can’t give the keys to their young core with Curry playing as well as he is. They have to thread a thin needle to keep going as they are right now. One way to do that is by trying to trade Chris paul.

If there’s anybody on Golden State’s roster who could be on the move this summer, it would be Chris Paul. Paul had a solid season for the Warriors coming off the bench. His shooting splits and per-36 minutes are about what they were a year ago with the Phoenix Suns. The issue though is that those marks are well below the numbers he put up the three seasons prior.
