Why The Golden State Warriors Do The Deal
Secretly, it’s become fair game to question the Warriors’ ability to develop players as well.
Jonathan Kuminga has been slow to make strides. James Wiseman has looked better as a Piston so far. Meanwhile, there’s a reason we’d include Moody in a hypothetical trade scenario.
Yet, Hachimura isn’t quite like those guys, either. He’s been in the NBA for some time. He doesn’t need developmental reps – he needs a team with use for him.
That would be the Warriors. Hachimura has a more developed offensive game than Moody. That’s all that matters to a contending team like the Warriors.

If Hachimura is willing to accept his player option and gamble on himself to have a big season, he should accept a trade to the Warriors too.
Should the Lakers part with him for Moody?
