Warriors Trade for DeRozan? A Bold Move
2 Feb
Summary
- Warriors target DeMar DeRozan from Kings for veteran star boost.
- Trade package includes Moody, Hield, Horford, and a future pick.
- DeRozan averages 19 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 3.9 assists.
As of February 2, 2026, the Golden State Warriors find themselves in a precarious position, holding the eighth seed in the Western Conference with a 27-23 record. To maintain their championship aspirations, a trade for another star player is being considered.
One proposed trade, reported by Fansided's Christopher Kline, suggests the Warriors acquire DeMar DeRozan from the Sacramento Kings. This potential deal would see Moses Moody, Buddy Hield, Al Horford, and Golden State's 2026 first-round pick heading to Sacramento.
DeRozan, averaging 19 points, 3.2 rebounds, 3.9 assists, and 1.3 steals this season, could fill the void left by an injured Jimmy Butler and provide valuable playmaking and scoring. His addition would create a star-studded, albeit aging, starting lineup alongside Stephen Curry, Butler (upon return), and Draymond Green, with a young center like Raynaud potentially rounding out the five.
