The Golden State Warriors have proposed a trade that could reunite them with Jordan Poole and bring in their longtime target, Trey Murphy. The proposal involves sending Jimmy Butler, Moses Moody, and two first-round picks to the New Orleans Pelicans. The Warriors seek to improve their roster in the wake of LeBron James' potential departure, as last season revealed their limitations in competing for another championship. This move is seen as a way to enhance their offensive capabilities with Poole's shooting and Murphy's perimeter defense. However, the Pelicans are reportedly asking for up to three first-round picks for Murphy, complicating negotiations.
