The Golden State Warriors have emerged as serious contenders for Toronto Raptors SF OG Anunoby, per reports. The Warriors struck a three-way deal earlier in the day to send PF James Wiseman out, which may help clear the way to acquire OG from the Raptors, who are looking to sell before the deadline at 3 p.m. ET on Thursday.
Shipping out Wiseman clears $9 million in cap space this season and gets the Dubs out of the rest of his rookie deal next season. The Warriors have a window before Jordan Poole's extension kicks in next season. Anunoby may be on the best deal in the NBA, signed through this season and next at under $20 million, plus a player option for 2024-25 worth around $19 million.
