The Golden State Warriors are expected to be active in trying to make a deal ahead of the NBA trade deadline, as Chicago's Nikola Vucevic has been rumored as a potential trade target for the 2022 NBA Champions. In addition, Golden State is reported to be willing to move off their expiring players as well as Buddy Hield if that's what it takes to land a key player.

Going back to Golden State's first trade this season, where they acquired Dennis Schröder from the Brooklyn Nets, they did free up one of the team's two-way contracts when they included Reece Beekman in the deal. Already having two of their three two-ways filled, the Warriors added their third and final spot earlier Tuesday.
