The Trade

The big question is, what will the Warriors have to give up to acquire Towns?

The Warriors trade Draymond Green, Alen Smailagic, the No. 2 overall pick in 2020, and their 2021 first-round draft pick for Towns.

This is a deal where the Wolves could get draft capital in return for Towns, which is important for a rebuilding team moving forward. The Warriors will not give up their core of Curry or Thompson obviously and they would like to hold on to Eric Paschall to give them some option in the frontcourt.

Let’s take a closer look at why each team should pull the trigger on this trade.
