On October 22, 2026, reports surfaced that the Warriors had begun calling teams about trading Kristaps Porzingis, who left the team during training camp over a health issue and is contemplating retirement. His structured extension makes him trade eligible immediately, with only $3 million of next season's $20 million guaranteed. The discussion is whether Golden State should attach picks or absorb salary to salvage the season around Steph Curry.
