The Golden State Warriors will likely have to make a change if they want to dig themselves out of their current hole and compete for the 2023-24 NBA Championship. They are currently in 12th place in the Western Conference and are sporting an 18-21 record, and it has become apparent that the current makeup of the roster makes it improbable that they’ll be able to make any sort of run during the second half of the season.
NBA: Warriors May Want To Move Off Wiggins Contract
“Andrew Wiggins is starting to approach Ben Simmons territory. Not that bad yet, but you might have to attach something to get off of him.”

But they do have a handful of tradable assets that could come in handy over the next few weeks as we approach the deadline. There has been talk surrounding the youngsters on the team in Moses Moody and Jonathan Kuminga, but Golden State was apparently apprehensive about including the latter in trade talks earlier this month. But one of the other names that has been thrown around often is that of Andrew Wiggins.
The former #1 overall pick, Wiggins has been something of a disappointment in his NBA career. But while he never made it to the levels of being a superstar, he had carved out a nice role for himself in the rotation for the Warriors, qualifying for his first All-Star Game and being a key piece in the team’s run at the 2021-2022 Championship. He was performing so well, in fact, that Golden State handed him down a 4-year contract extension worth $109 million. Just 35 games into the first year of that deal, and the Warriors may be looking to move on.
