After finishing 46-36 and missing the playoffs, some form of change seems likely for the Golden State Warriors. In a proposed trade from Zach Buckley of Bleacher Report, the Warriors would change things up in a big way. The trade lands the Warriors Jarrett Allen for 2021-22 All-Star, Andrew Wiggins.<\/p>\n

\"Proposed<\/p>\n

\u201cIf the Golden State Warriors are going to squeeze anything of significance from the remainder of Stephen Curry\u2019s tenure, they have to upgrade their roster around him,\u201d Buckley wrote in his April 23 column building five trades from NBA rumors. \u201cSince they don\u2019t have money to spend in free agency\u2014and won\u2019t even if they let Klay Thompson and Chris Paul walk\u2014they\u2019ll have to hit the trade market to make that happen.\u201d<\/p>\n

The proposed deal from Buckley sends Wiggins, Trayce Jackson-Davis, and a \u201cfew\u201d first-round picks to the Cleveland Cavaliers.<\/p>\n

\u201cMaybe a change of scenery would help get him back on track. He doesn\u2019t have much (if any) trade value on his own, but package him with promising prospect Trayce Jackson-Davis and a few future first-round picks, and Golden State might be onto something,\u201d Buckley wrote. \u201cMaybe that\u2019s even the package that gets the Cleveland Cavaliers to cough up Jarrett Allen, who\u2019s never been an easy fit with Evan Mobley.\u201d<\/p>\n

Andrew Wiggins Averaged Career Lows in 2023-24<\/h2>\n

During the 2023-24 season with the Golden State Warriors, Wiggins averaged career lows in points, assists, and steals. The former No. 1 pick averaged just 13.2 points per game, nearly four fewer points than his 17.1 average the season prior.<\/p>\n

Wiggins also took the fewest three-point shots since the 2017-18 season, averaging 3.6 per game, shooting just 35.8% from three-point range.<\/p>\n

However, Wiggins was named an All-Star two seasons ago and was playing some of the best basketball of his career. In the 2021-22 season, he averaged 17.2 points and shot the second-highest percentage from three in his career at 39.3%.<\/p>\n

Buckley wrote that the Warriors will have to remind teams what the former All-Star is capable of, especially on the defensive end.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs poor as things went for Wiggins this season, the Warriors will do their best to remind other teams he was an All-Star and their best defender during their 2022 title run. That was a while ago, but he is only 29 years old, so his sagging stats shouldn\u2019t necessarily be a sign of any age-related decline.\u201d<\/p>\n

In an episode of \u201cAll the Smoke\u201d released on October 20, 2022, Klay Thompson spoke about Wiggins\u2019 impact.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m so grateful for Andrew,\u201d Thompson said on an episode of All the Smoke. \u201cHe makes my job so much easier. I watch him, like, bro, I can\u2019t believe you have to chase around Doncic and Tatum and Morant all game and then go get us 20. I\u2019m exhausted watching you play.\u201d<\/p>\n

How Jarrett Allen Would Help the Warriors<\/h2>\n

Trading for Allen would give the Golden State Warriors a different dynamic on the offensive end. He was named an All-Star in the 2021-22 season, averaging 16.1 points and 1.3 blocks per game. In every season of his seven-year career, Allen has averaged at least 1.2 blocks per game.<\/p>\n

Buckley wrote that Allen would be the anchor of the defense and someone who could finish lobs at the rim.<\/p>\n

\u201cGet Allen to Golden State, though, and he could be the anchor who gets the defense back on track and the automatic lob finisher who ups the potency of this attack.\u201d<\/p>\n
