The Golden State Warriors once again appear to be going star-hunting ahead of the mid-season trade deadline, having been strongly linked to Anthony Davis in a blockbuster report from Chris Haynes on Friday.
Davis comes with significant risk given a lengthy injury history that includes most recently exiting the Christmas Day game against the Warriors after only 10 minutes due to a groin issue. It's a risk that Golden State might need to take, but only for a very specific price which may not match for the Dallas Mavericks are looking for.
Warriors trade package for Anthony Davis is crystal clear
The cleanest move for the Warriors from a contract standpoint is to flip Jimmy Butler for Davis given they make the same salary.
