This should mean that they can be expected to be busy between now and the NBA Trade Deadline on Feb. 6.<\/p>\n<p>The Warriors have been in the hunt for a player of that caliber dating back to this past offseason. Golden State was linked to several stars like Paul George and Lauri Markkanen during the offseason rumor mill.
