The Golden State Warriors emerged victorious with arguably the best of their four recent championships in 2022, but the roster and therefore the outcome could have looked a whole lot different had they pulled off a blockbuster mid-season trade.
According to NBA insider Jake Fischer of The Stein Line in a report on Wednesday, the Warriors looked at a potential trade for Domantas Sabonis ahead of the 2022 deadline before he was ultimately sent from the Indiana Pacers to the Sacramento Kings for Tyrese Haliburton.
