Kyle Lowry is building a Hall of Fame case

The Golden State Warriors don’t feel pressure to make a trade ahead of the trade deadline. And Warriors leaders Stephen Curry, Draymond Green and Steve Kerr have urged the team not to make a panic move that will hurt the future. But that doesn’t mean Golden State is giving up on the season either.

“What you’re really trying to do is see if you can make some moves at the margins that can help your current team,” Kerr told ESPN. “We are going to do everything we can to be as competitive as possible, to put the best team around Steph as possible without mortgaging the future, and that is the right decision.”

The Warriors are expected to continue to evaluate their roster until the February 6 trade deadline is closer. Golden State could look to add players like veteran center Nikola Vucevic, who the team has been linked to for weeks. Or Mike Dunleavey Jr. could work a deal to get out of the luxury tax, if the team continues to slide in the standings. All options are on the table for the Warriors in the next two weeks.

Curry said as long as Dunleavy is trying to improve the team, that’s enough for him.

“(We’re) trying to be a realistic threat in a playoffs series,” Curry said. “If Mike calls and says, ‘Hey, this is an opportunity to do X, Y, Z,’ I give my opinion.

“My hope is that (if there’s no action at the deadline), it’s not because of a lack of effort. If we don’t have a chance to get better, my whole thing is I want to win, and whatever that means, all efforts are pointed towards that, then I can kind of live with whatever happens.”
