Curry's Warriors floated as landing spot if OKC splits its trio

ESPN's Ben Golliver reports Oklahoma City may have to break up its Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Jalen Williams and Chet Holmgren trio once Gilgeous-Alexander's salary jumps in 2027-28, forcing cuts under second-apron rules.

Golden State is floated as a potential trade partner, with Brandin Podziemski, Moses Moody and future first-round picks as possible pieces heading back. The idea rests on a cap projection more than a year out, and on the Warriors wanting one more title window for Stephen Curry.
