Months of seemingly do-or-die games for the Warriors finally took their toll when\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/nba\/player\/stephen-curry\">Stephen Curry<\/a>\u00a0injured his hamstring in Game 1 after a quick turnaround from the prior series against the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/nba\/houston-rockets\/\">Houston Rockets<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>At one point in the season, the Warriors fell as low as the No. 12 seed in the Western Conference. Desperate to make a move, General Manager Mike Dunleavy Jr. pulled the trigger on a blockbuster trade that sent Andrew Wiggins, Kyle Anderson and a top-10 protected first-round pick to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/nba\/miami-heat\/\">Miami Heat<\/a>\u00a0as part of a five-team trade for\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/nba\/player\/jimmy-butler\">Jimmy Butler<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"golden-state-warriors-favored-to-land-timberwolves-star\">lden State Warriors favored to land Timberwolves star<\/h2>\n<p>The Warriors had to make up for lost time with Butler and went on a 23-7 run with him in the lineup. Even before the injury to Curry, Golden State&#8217;s weaknesses were on full display, particularly their lack of height.<\/p>\n<p>The Warriors will likely look to address those needs in the offseason.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/nba\/player\/jonathan-kuminga\">Jonathan Kuminga<\/a>\u00a0is one of their best and most likely avenues to do so. As a result, the Warriors are favored to land the Minnesota Timberwolves&#8217; big man, Naz Reid, according to Bovada Sportsbook.<\/p>\n<div class=\"m-detail--body-item m-detail--body-twitter-embed\">\n<figure class=\"m-embed mm-embed--twitter l-inline\">\n<div data-embed-url=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/gswballreport\/status\/1929314208853737961\" data-rhp=\"1\">https:\/\/twitter.com\/GSWBallReport\/status\/1929314208853737961?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1929314208853737961%7Ctwgr%5E494a817a5629f73f1926ad8918c6cfeb220b7707%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fathlonsports.com%2Fnba%2Fgolden-state-warriors%2Fgolden-state-warriors-named-favorites-to-land-timberwolves-star-in-offseason<\/div>\n<div data-embed-url=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/gswballreport\/status\/1929314208853737961\" data-rhp=\"1\">\n<p>Reid averaged 14.2 points per game after winning the Sixth Man of the Year award in the 2023-24 season. The Warriors are +175 favorites to land Reid, an implied probability of 36.36%. The\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/nba\/brooklyn-nets\/\">Brooklyn Nets<\/a>\u00a0are close behind at +220 and the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/nba\/charlotte-hornets\/\">Charlotte Hornets<\/a>\u00a0are +285.<\/p>\n<p>Reid would be a good fit in the Warriors&#8217; lineup. While he won&#8217;t have a player like\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/nba\/player\/rudy-gobert\">Rudy Gobert<\/a>\u00a0anchoring the spot next to or behind him, his skillset, toughness and playoff experience is precisely what the Warriors need.<\/p>\n<div class=\"m-detail--body\">\n<p>The Warriors are likely going to go all-in next season, as Curry would turn 38 years old in March of next year. It&#8217;s also worth noting that, as of writing, Head Coach Steve Kerr isn&#8217;t under contract beyond next season.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The\u00a0Golden State Warriors&#8216; season came to an unfortunate end at the hands of the\u00a0Minnesota Timberwolves.
