To be fair, the Golden State Warriors haven’t been the same since January 19. Since Jimmy Butler‘s ACL injury vs. the Miami Heat, the Dubs have gone 2-5.

The Golden State Warriors have made their intentions clear regarding Jimmy Butler‘s future with the organization. Despite his season-ending ACL tear and ongoing trade speculation involving Giannis Antetokounmpo,

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Steve Kerr and the Golden State Warriors are still coming to terms with how dramatically their season changes after Jimmy Butler's season-ending right knee injury and how they must depend on their depth going forward without the do-everything guard.

The Golden State Warriors' approach to the trade deadline in the wake of Jimmy Butler's season-ending torn ACL has reportedly been revealed.

Jimmy Butler tore his right ACL in a season-ending injury in the Warriors' 135-112 victory against the Heat, ESPN reported.

Golden State sent out Jonathan Kuminga and Buddy Hield to the Hawks for the oft-injured Porzingis, who has played in at least 60 games only once in the past seven seasons, and has suited up only 17 times this season while dealing with Postural Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), other various injuries and illness.

When the news broke that Jimmy Butler had suffered an ACL injury, some segments of the Golden State Warriors fanbase, and even the media, began to speculate whether the front office would look to trade him.

Instead of landing a two-time MVP to pair with Stephen Curry, Golden State opted for a far more modest move—acquiring the injury-prone Latvian center in a trade that left many fans scratching their heads.
