The Golden State Warriors trading for Wendell Carter Jr. makes too much sense for they and the Orlando Magic to ignore.
Peter O'Keefe of Blue Man Hoop argues that the Golden State Warriors should pursue a trade for Orlando Magic center Wendell Carter Jr. as they look to move Kristaps Porzingis and his $20 million salary. The writer states Carter's $18.1 million salary fits well with Porzingis' deal, although a third team would likely be needed to navigate second tax apron restrictions for both franchises.
According to the analysis, Orlando could benefit financially by buying out Porzingis and potentially acquiring a future first-round draft pick. Meanwhile, Golden State would strengthen its center rotation with Carter, who is averaging 14.3 points and 9.4 rebounds amid the Magic's 2-6 start to the season.
