What happened
ESPN reported the Warriors are exploring trade options for Kristaps Porziņģis while he remains away indefinitely with an illness, and they are not rushing a deal.
Golden State is open to shedding his $20 million 2026-27 salary, but league sources said the club will let the market develop before moving him.
If a trade develops, Golden State's center rotation could change quickly; otherwise the team may keep leaning on stopgap options at the 5.
