The Golden State Warriors were reportedly hoping to make a big splash this past summer in an effort to bolster their roster and give Stephen Curry the support needed to return to NBA title contention.
Two of the most prominent names linked to the Warriors were former Los Angeles Clippers star Paul George and Utah Jazz big man Lauri Markkanen. While landing one of these Western Conference All-Stars would have been a huge win for Dub Nation, The Athletic’s Anthony Slater reports that the Warriors were ambitiously planning to acquire both players this offseason.
