‘Dr. J’ falls ill at Sixers game, taken to hospital

The Golden State Warriors made the first major trade of the 24-25 season by acquiring Dennis Schroder and plan to continue to be aggressive leading to the trade deadline. Over the past year, the Warriors have pursued trades for LeBron James, Lauri Markkanen, Paul George and Jimmy Butler.

“We’re always aggressive,” Mike Dunleavy said on a conference call to discuss the Schroder addition. “You got to be mindful of what you’re giving up, what you’re getting back, all those things. But anything to do to make the team better, we’re going to do.

“We’re in a time zone here of maximizing our window with Steph, Draymond and Steve [Kerr] as our coach. So as proven here on the first day we could basically make trades with certain players, we did that… For the most part I feel good about this team, particularly on the defensive end and now we have a player that we think could create and generate more offense for us. I want to evaluate and see, but we’ll always be looking at stuff.”

The Warriors had a need in the backcourt following the season-ending injury to De’Anthony Melton.
