Steph (357) + Klay (268) combined to make 625 threes last season
Wiggins (91) + Podziemski (90) + Moody (72) + Kuminga (53) combined to make 306 threes last season
The Warriors revolutionized the 3-pointer, and now they’re badly in need of more shooting and scoring – 1:21 PM

DLo sign and trade for Klay
Jonas MLE
Vincent/Vando/JHS/picks for a wing
Chris Paul minimum as backup PG
Is it likely? Not even a little.
Is it what I’m spending my morning thinking about? Way more than a little. – 11:24 AM

The Warriors lost out on Paul George, plus they’re preparing to move on from Klay Thompson.
Chris Paul could soon be waived to clear $30 million in cap space.
Andrew Wiggins is being aggressively shopped on the trade market.

Paul George opting out boosts already high likelihood he chooses between Clippers and Sixers. Clips have advantage – for now – per source.
This gives Klay Thompson leverage with Warriors, who dread the idea of Klay and CP3 walking without a star coming in. – 5:12 PM

The Oklahoma City Thunder extended a qualifying offer to Aaron Wiggins, league sources told @hoopshype. Wiggins will become a restricted free agent. OKC will look to sign Wiggins to a new deal.

Bottom line:
OKC will still have ample cap space to do something notable (~$28.6M)
OKC will then be able to re-sign both Joe and Wiggins, who can be made restricted free agents
OKC currently projects to be around $68.7 below the first apron, where they are hard capped this szn – 4:36 PM

If the Warriors can’t find a trade for Chris Paul this weekend, he will likely be waived and sign elsewhere for significantly less money, per @wojespn.

You know what? Fuck it. I’m gonna take a stab at predicting the NBA offseason. Here are my wild guesses (emphasis on “guesses”) at how the next week or so shakes out:
– Paul George traded to the Warriors for Chris Paul, Jonathan Kuminga, GPII and draft picks.
– Clippers redirect – 4:15 PM

Notable that the Warriors and Chris Paul only pushed his guarantee deadline back until Sunday, not into July. GSW now have a small window this weekend to figure out possible trade paths, but Paul needs clearer view of his future prior to free agency. – 1:19 PM

The Warriors and Chris Paul mutually agreed to push back his guarantee date on $30 million, per @wojespn.

More on this storyline
The Suns have been connected to all kinds of guards for minimum salaries, from Kyle Lowry to Monte Morris — and even a potential reunion with Paul, should he ultimately be waived by the Warriors, according to NBA personnel. -via Yahoo! Sports / June 30, 2024
The Warriors face their own predicament, having already agreed with Paul to move back his contract’s guarantee date for the final year and $30 million on his deal. What big swings are still out there, as Golden State has also put Andrew Wiggins on the trade block, according to league sources. The options range across a spectrum of upside, from sending out picks for Brandon Ingram to potentially acquiring one with Zach LaVine, sources said. But if no deal emerges, and the Warriors indeed lose Klay Thompson as Golden State and league personnel currently believe will occur, the Warriors are considering their best options, sources said, with the full mid-level exception that can become available to Golden State. -via Yahoo! Sports / June 30, 2024
Any possible PG13 trade between the Warriors and Clippers was always going to be complicated, but Warriors executives thought they’d solved the puzzle. From what I’ve heard, some combination (but definitely not all) of Wiggins, CP3, Jonathan Kuminga or Moses Moody plus one future first-round pick were put into discussions with the Clippers. -via New York Times / June 30, 2024
Michael Grange: Rowan Barrett and Jordi Fernandez both emphasized how disappointed Wiggins was when Warriors made the move to ‘pull him’ from national team. Barrett said Wiggins had been training hard, was looking forward to following in his Mom’s footsteps as an Olympian. Barrett wouldn’t give any reason Warriors pulled the plug but technically it can only be due to a medical issue the team is concerned about. That said if Wiggins is about to be traded any receiving team would want to be sure Wiggins was in good health as they take on 3/$85m /2 -via x.com / June 29, 2024
Golden State has been active on the trade market in the lead up to free agency. Wiggins is due to make $26.3 million next season, and is on the books for $84.65 million over the next three seasons. His contract could be necessary to complete a trade to shake up the core, but this Olympic decision is separate from any trade talks, per sources. -via New York Times / June 29, 2024
