The Golden State Warriors are off to a scorching 7-1 start to begin the season. Much of their success can be attributed to their unconventionally deep rotation, with head coach Steve Kerr sometimes playing as many as 11 to 12 players big minutes on a given night.
While this depth has been valuable, especially in light of injuries to key players like Stephen Curry and Andrew Wiggins, some would argue that it could also be Golden State’s ticket to landing a second star that would propel them into legitimate title contenders.
ESPN’s Brian Windhorst recently suggested that the Warriors could be in line for a “big trade” this season, adding fuel to the speculation about a potential blockbuster move.
