Miami Heat appear desperate to rid themselves of forward Jimmy Butler. Butler's highly public desire for the Heat to trade him has led Miami to suspend him on three different occasions—most recently on Monday for an indefinite period of time.
The Golden State Warriors have hit a rough patch recently, going 4-4 in their last eight games. With Draymond Green and Jonathan Kuminga sidelined due to injuries and Stephen Curry
The Golden State Warriors are pursuing a trade deal for Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler. However, the Warriors were reportedly reluctant about the high asking price for the 35-year-old forward and chemistry concerns with the team's roster.
When it was rumored earlier in the season that Jimmy Butler wanted a trade, the Golden State Warriors were one of his preferred destinations. Though the Warriors may have had mutual interest, it was unlikely that they would trade for Butler, according to Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.
Stephen Curry hit a long 3-pointer with 1:52 left on the way to 21 points, Andrew Wiggins scored 27 and the Golden State Warriors beat the Western Conference-leading Oklahoma City Thunder 116-109.
Dennis Schroder scored 23 points with five 3-pointers, Brandin Podziemski contributed 20 points off the bench with Stephen Curry sitting out to rest his troublesome knees, and the Golden State Warriors beat the stumbling Utah Jazz 114-103.
Dennis Schroder had his most productive game with his new team, scoring 23 points while filling in for Stephen Curry, and the Golden State Warriors held on for a 114-103 victory over the Utah Jazz on Tuesday in San Francisco.
My league sources confirm these hesitations, revealing that Curry himself has reservations about Butler's fit in the Warriors' locker room — a sentiment shared by head coach Steve Kerr. Their worries stem from Butler's tumultuous history with previous teams:
The Warriors were much more balanced, as Andrew Wiggins led the way with 27 points and superstar Steph Curry contributed 21 on 5-10 shooting from deep. Following the game, Curry revealed what was successful for them and how they were able to pull out a huge win over the top team in the conference.
Warriors star Stephen Curry sat out the front end of a back-to-back Tuesday against the Jazz due to bilateral knee injury management, but the team is hopeful he will play Wednesday.
