Golden State Warriors Willing to Be Patient on Kristaps Porziņģis Trade

The Golden State Warriors are open to exploring trade routes for Kristaps Porziņģis but are willing to remain patient and let the market materialize. Porziņģis remains away from the team indefinitely with an illness. Golden State hopes to shed his $20 million salary for the 2026-27 season or utilize a buyout to increase his appeal, while currently relying on Draymond Green, Al Horford, Graham Ike, and Charles Bassey to fill the center void in his absence.
