There was no shock late twist to Walker Kessler's contract situation at the Utah Jazz on Monday, with no extension forthcoming before the deadline which now makes the young center an intriguing potential trade target for the Golden State Warriors and other rival teams around the NBA.
ESPN's Bobby Marks and Tim Bontemps floated the idea of Kessler as a trade option last week, but what would a potential deal look like from a Warrior perspective? The 24-year-old's $4.9 million salary this season is easy to match from a financial standpoint, but that doesn't mean he'd come at all cheaply.
