3 players Warriors could target with Stephen Curry’s major contract gift

Blue Man Hoop highlights three potential targets for the Golden State Warriors following Stephen Curry taking roughly $10 million less on his new contract. The financial discount, combined with expiring contracts, provides Golden State with significant future salary cap flexibility. Writer G.C. Bellchamber identifies Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon, New Orleans Pelicans guard Dejounte Murray, and Memphis Grizzlies guard Ty Jerome as viable options for the franchise to pursue via trade or free agency.

The outlet notes that Gordon could be targeted in a trade involving expiring contracts to bolster frontcourt defense and rebounding. Meanwhile, Bellchamber views Murray as an ideal two-way backcourt partner for Curry, provided he stays healthy. Finally, Jerome is highlighted as an affordable floor-spacing depth option should Golden State opt to distribute their cap space among multiple contributors.
