The Warriors superstar and head coach are aligned in their doubts about the combustible Butler's fit in Golden State'
According to NBA insider Kevin O’Connor of Yahoo Sports, Stephen Curry and Steve Kerr are concerned about Jimmy Butler‘s fit in the Golden State Warriors locker room. Butler has requested a trade from the Miami Heat.
As the clock ticks toward the deadline, the Warriors have floated a protected first-rounder as a sweetener in potential deals.
The Warriors have been rumored to be back in trying to acquire Jimmy Butler, but they are also looking at Zach LaVine.
Stephen Curry reportedly has some concerns about a potential pairing with Jimmy Butler on the Golden State Warriors.
A proposed trade with the Golden State Warriors sees them land Zach LaVine from the Chicago Bulls while maintaining young assets.
Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors admitted that he wanted to play more minutes against the Oklahoma City Thunder to prove to Steve Kerr that he can still perform at an elite NBA level. Golden State Warriors secured a crucial 116-109 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder in a game highlighted by Shai Gilgeous-Alexander‘s impressive performance and Andrew Wiggins’ leadership on the court.
Stephen Curry and Steve Kerr are not entirely sold on landing Jimmy Butler due to the impact it could have on the Warriors locker room.
But the team has been "fun-bad," thanks to solid play from two-time All-Star small forward/shooting guard LaVine, two-time All-Star center Nikola Vucevic, and guards Coby White, Ayo Dosunmu and Giddey. In the mediocre East, the Bulls are good enough to have at least a shot at the postseason.
It has become clear that Golden State's general manager Mike Dunleavy needs to make a move to provide Stephen Curry with a star offensive talent, but it may just cost them their four-time NBA champion and 2017 Defensive player of the Year, Draymond Green.
