Warriors 'Staunchly' Against Trading Jimmy Butler, Green

The Golden State Warriors are reportedly 'staunchly' against trading veteran stars Jimmy Butler ($54.1M salary) and Draymond Green. The Athletic's Sam Amick reported Wednesday that team sources indicate Golden State's brass, including coach Steve Kerr and GM Mike Dunleavy, have repeatedly expressed confidence in their veteran core of Butler, Green, and Steph Curry. While acquiring a superstar like Giannis Antetokounmpo or Anthony Davis would require salary matching, breaking up the current trio is deemed unlikely, despite potential financial complications.
