Warriors plan to trade Draymond Green ahead of deadline

The Golden State Warriors are expected to trade Draymond Green before the February deadline, according to multiple reports. Green, on a one-year deal worth $27.8 million without a no-trade clause, is seen as a significant trade piece as the organization prepares for a potential rebuild in 2027. Warriors GM Mike Dunleavy indicated a shift in direction amid difficulties managing a team with aging stars, including Stephen Curry. Green has expressed his openness to being traded, stating he prefers to leave if not wanted. If Green, Curry, and Jimmy Butler III depart next summer, the Warriors could have over $120 million in cap space.
