Warriors Trade Idea Swaps Porzingis For 3-PT Spacing Center With Rumored Interest

Bleacher Report's Eric Pincus proposed a trade idea sending Golden State Warriors center Kristaps Porzingis to the Milwaukee Bucks in exchange for center Myles Turner and Jericho Sims. In the proposal, the Warriors would also send Moses Moody, two future second-round picks, and $3 million in cash to Milwaukee. The framework aims to resolve Golden State's ongoing drama with Porzingis, who has yet to play this season amid withheld salary payments.

The proposed deal would save the Warriors $3.6 million against their hard cap while adding Turner's rim protection and floor spacing. However, conflicting reports surround Golden State's actual interest. While some sources view Turner as a fit, insider Jake Fischer reported the Warriors are reluctant to absorb Turner's long-term $26 million annual contract without receiving draft incentives from Milwaukee.
