The Golden State Warriors, less than two years removed from winning the NBA title, failed to make the playoffs this season.

With that result, Klay Thompson entering free agency, Stephen Curry having turned 36 years old and Draymond Green coming off a campaign riddled with suspensions, changes could be on the way.

And this week, The Athletic's Anthony Slater suggested one potential target.

"We discussed some of the Warriors' options on our offseason preview podcast," Slater wrote. "Two quick situations of note: If Brandon Ingram hits the trade market, I would not expect the Warriors to show interest. If the Heat shop Jimmy Butler, I would expect the Warriors to enter the conversation to at least some degree."

There's a pretty important caveat there. Earlier this offseason, Pat Riley told reporters that Miami isn't thinking about trading Butler, but it's not hard to see why it might. Butler turns 35 in September and has struggled to stay on the floor throughout his Heat tenure.

Those same issues could follow him to Golden State, but the Warriors may be desperate enough to take the risk.

We've cooked up another three-team trade that would send Butler to Golden State, brighten Miami's future and even help the Orlando Magic push for the second round in 2025.
