Warriors' Most Realistic Trade Targets in 2024 Offseason | News, Scores, Highlights, Stats, and Rumors

Brandon Ingram should, in theory, probably be untouchable. He is a 26-year-old star coming off one of the most efficient campaigns of his career, and he fills up a stat sheet like few others. He has averaged at least 20 points, 4.5 assists and 4.5 rebounds in each of the past four seasons; only eight other players can claim the same, per StatHead Basketball.
Having said all that, Ingram isn't exactly the model of great health. After playing 79 games in his rookie season of 2016-17, he hasn't reached the 70-game mark since. He has never become the defensive player his physical tools say he should be, and he just played a mostly disastrous series in New Orleans' first-round sweep.
There's at least a chance the Pelicans make him available this summer. And, flaws and all, he is someone the Warriors should go after.
He isn't quite as prolific of a perimeter shooter as you'd want from a Curry co-star, but Ingram's ability to create for himself and his teammates would still be hugely helpful. Plus, there might be another level of offensive efficiency he can reach if Curry's gravity and Golden State's system help bring out his best.
