The Golden State Warriors have been painfully quiet during the 2025 offseason, but ESPN panelists seem to believe they're going to make a big splash before the 2026 trade deadline.

The Warriors are no stranger to major in-season moves, with 2025 producing one of the more memorable trades in recent history. Golden State acquired Jimmy Butler from the Miami Heat, thus completing the construction of a new big three.
