NBA Rumors: The two superstars Warriors want to improve the interior game
Anthony Davis and Domantas Sabonis are two of the most sought-after players heading into the upcoming trade deadline, and Golden State could position itself
The Golden State Warriors are facing what could be their last big attempt to conquer another championship. In recent years, they have made tough decisions to maximize the final stages of Stephen Curry's career, including the departure of Klay Thompson and the arrival of Jimmy Butler.
However, their inconsistent start to the 2025-26 season may force them to make another significant move to strengthen their candidacy in an increasingly demanding Western Conference.
With a start marked by ups and downs, the California franchise is considering the possibility of making a trade to provide them with the necessary firepower to compete for the title. And that step could involve the arrival of one of the big names that have been circulating in recent rumors.
One of the priorities is to add a proven center. The team has relied on Draymond Green as the starting center for much of the season, with players like Quinten Post, Al Horford, or Trayce Jackson-Davis rotating inside. Although Green remains a defensive anchor, the lack of size will be a factor when facing players like Nikola Jokic or Chet Holmgren.
Anthony Davis and Domantas Sabonis, two possible targets
One of the options on the table is Anthony Davis. The center for the Dallas Mavericks has been surrounded by rumors since the start of the season, especially after the dismissal of general manager Nico Harrison. There is speculation that the Mavs might opt for a rebuild to accumulate assets to surround Cooper Flagg with talent in the coming years, and Davis would fit into that plan.
Another alternative is to look towards Sacramento. The Kings are going through a rough patch and could part ways with some of their most valuable pieces in the coming months, including Domantas Sabonis. His offensive skill set seems to naturally fit into the current system of Golden State, which could also mask his defensive limitations and make the most of his remaining prime years.
The main obstacle lies in the cost. The Warriors would have to give up some of their young talent or future draft picks to close any of these trades. It was recently reported that Draymond Green warned the franchise about the possibility of adding Lauri Markkanen when the price set by Utah was too high. The question now is whether they will be willing to sacrifice their future to bring in a player of the caliber of Davis or Sabonis.
