The Golden State Warriors have trade deadline dreams of landing a player like Kevin Durant or Jimmy Butler, but they reportedly have a backup plan if they can't add a star.

ESPN's Shams Charania reported on SportsCenter Wednesday that the Warriors could pivot to Chicago Bulls center Nikola Vuu010deviu0107 if they can't land Butler or Durant before Thursday's deadline.

"They've called on players like Kevin Durant, Jimmy Butler, I'm told," Charania said. "That will continue between and now tomorrow's deadline. If they miss out on those guys, potentially what you could see is a player like Nikola Vuu010deviu0107 at center.
