Golden State Warriors want to take advantage of changes in Boston and bring one of the best players from the Celtics

The Golden State Warriors feel they are very close to contending for the championship again since acquiring Jimmy Butler to team up with Stephen Curry. They will spend the summer figuring out how to take the next step.

In addition to the possibility of trading players like Jonathan Kuminga, they will be looking to add more players that fit their style, and one name that comes to mind, according to Logan Murdock of The Ringer, is the guard/shooting guard Derrick White from the Boston Celtics.

There are strong rumors that the Celtics will make some significant moves this summer to get under the luxury tax, and White's four-year contract starting next season at $28 million (rising to the mid-30 million range) is a likely casualty.

"Another guy I think the Warriors should be looking at for the future is Derrick White," Murdock said on the Zach Lowe Show podcast. "I think it's something the Warriors are looking at right now. Around the league, people are expecting Boston to have some sort of fire sale."

The Impact Derrick White Would Have

White would add more defensive prowess to the Warriors, while "being able to settle everyone down, especially when you have a young group like that," Murdock added. "He's the one with all the trade value," Lowe agreed, referring to the possibility of dealing White in the imminent Celtics roster reshuffle. "He's the one that can bring back the motherlode: picks, picks, picks, young player."

It remains to be seen what the Warriors could put together in an offer. White averaged 16.4 points and 4.5 rebounds per game last season, shooting 38.4% from the three-point line and dishing out 4.8 assists per game in his career.
