The Golden State Warriors pulled off arguably the most shocking trade of draft day as they sent Jordan Poole and two future picks to Washington for Chris Paul. The Dubs wanted free from Poole’s long-term contract as they try to contend for a championship now and save money down the road. CP3 is 38 years old, but the 12-time All-Star is an all-time great point guard.
There are questions like how does Paul fit? Can the veteran still play 30-plus minutes every night? Having Stephen Curry and CP3 start in the backcourt will make the Warriors small, but it could allow them to diversify their attack.
