The Golden State Warriors are reportedly willing to entertain trade offers for almost every player on their roster, with the exception of their leader, Stephen Curry. The report comes amid a challenging season for the team, who entered with championship expectations but find themselves struggling with a 17-20 record.

According to The Athletic’s Shams Charania on Thursday’s FanDuel TV’s Run It Back, the team is operating from a place where “everyone but [Curry] is on the table.”

After a crushing defeat at the hands of the New Orleans Pelicans, both coach Steve Kerr and Curry are concerned about the team. Curry, in particular, itted that he felt the disappointment of the fans.

The Warriors’ struggles can be attributed to a series of setbacks, including Draymond Green’s two suspensions, Gary Payton II’s injuries, and 2022 All-Star Andrew Wiggins’ lackluster performance.

With the team currently sitting at the 14th spot in offense and 23rd in defense, the front office, led by Mike Dunleavy Jr., is reportedly open to making significant moves ahead of the trade deadline.

“We have a standard that’s pretty evident that—if things stay the same, it’s the definition of insanity, right? Keep doing the same thing, expecting a different result,” Curry told reporters Wednesday, January 8.

“So, as players, and what we can do, we have to control our effort, our focus, competitiveness, control the things that we can on the court,” he continued. “Like every NBA season, every organization, that stuff works itself out.”

While Charania’s report doesn’t necessarily indicate a complete wipeout of the team’s core players, it raises questions about the team’s willingness to part ways with longstanding players like Green, who signed a four-year, $100 million contract last summer, and Klay Thompson, who makes $43.2 million this season.

The Warriors have a diverse roster with players at various stages of their careers. Trade dynamics differ between veterans like Chris Paul, currently on an expiring $30.8 million contract, and Wiggins, in the first year of a four-year, $109 million extension.

Meanwhile, young talents like Jonathan Kuminga and Moses Moody could also be potential trade assets if the front office decides to explore major changes.

As the trade deadline approaches in four weeks, the Warriors’s front office is weighing their options.
