Why The Golden State Warriors Do The Deal 

The Warriors are looking at two timelines in making this deal. 

In the short term, they’re upgrading at the 5. Simple. Wiseman has been dreadful to start 2022-23. There is no question that Onkongwu would look better in this rotation.

Yet, we know the Warriors are preparing for the future. They have a stockpile of intriguing young players in their second unit. This deal is about landing them another one. 

Granted, they’re giving up a couple in the process. Moody is a loss – more on him later. Still, Onkongwu and Jonathan Kuminga surely have a higher upside as a duo.
