The Golden State Warriors pulled off a four-for-one trade at last week’s deadline, shipping off Andrew Wiggins, Kyle Anderson, Dennis Schröder, and Lindy Waters III (plus a protected first-round pick) while welcoming in Jimmy Butler.
Trades almost always have to be judged well after the fact — though I’m more than willing to publicly shame the Dallas Mavericks for the idiocy of trading Luka Donu010diu0107 — but it’s also fun to keep tabs on how players do in the immediate aftermath of a deal.
We know how things have gone for Butler, who has fit right in while helping the Warriors win both games since he joined the team.
