Why The Golden State Warriors Do The Deal 

We already mentioned some functional similarities between Washington and Green. For the Warriors, they’re essential to making this deal work. 

After all, the Warriors may be contenders, but they have an exciting young core as well. Washington would be a great addition to it. With proper guidance, this organization could groom him to be the Draymond Green of the future. 

Meanwhile, Oubre Jr. is the other notable player they’re landing here. This would be a reunion for the Warriors. The last time Oubre Jr. played for them, he was disappointing – but he was also a starter. Backing up Andrew Wiggins should be a more suitable role for the veteran wing. 

Realistically, this deal doesn’t make the Warriors better. They’re losing their defensive anchor – it’s hard to find a deal that’ll improve them by doing so.
