Among the more interesting teams in the NBA this season, the Golden State Warriors<\/a> have to be among them.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Warriors find themselves in a situation where they can probably compete because of how good Stephen Curry still is, but the harsh reality is that this just isn’t a championship-looking roster at the moment.\u00a0<\/p>\n

With Kristaps Porzingis also dealing with an unknown health issue, it gets even harder. To improve, the Warriors need to make a trade.<\/p>\n

There isn’t exactly a slew of players the Warriors can pursue, which is part of the problem.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Warriors aren’t exactly loaded with assets, either, which makes trades even more difficult. Despite that reality, the New York Knicks<\/a> insider from the New York Post recently suggested that Karl-Anthony Towns could be available, adding that Golden State could figure out a way to get about $50 million in cap space to land him.<\/p>\n

\u201cOnly a few possible suitors stand out to me right now in terms of cap space teams and fit. Chicago and the Clippers<\/a> have the cleanest path. The Nets<\/a> can get there with the money, but that\u2019s not a good fit. Golden State and Dallas could get around [$50 million] in space with more tinkering,\u201d Stefan Bondy wrote<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Towns ending up in Golden State would be a picture-perfect outcome for the Warriors, though it’s also fair to mention that there are still concerns about what the Knicks are going to do with a potential contract.\u00a0<\/p>\n

If the Knicks end all of this and pay Towns what he deserves, Golden State wouldn’t have a chance to trade for him. If the Knicks don’t do that, that would be a different topic.<\/p>\n
