Warriors Win

The Warriors received Willie Naulls and Kenny Sears, but New York acquired Tom Gola, an elite two-way centerpiece. Golden State received Willie Naulls; Kenny Sears and sent Tom Gola. The counterpart captured somewhat more durable value, although Golden State's return was not without merit. The displayed team grades for Golden State Warriors and New York Knicks reflect the realized value of the players, draft assets and transaction context that ultimately materialized. The judgment is retrospective and does not assume that every later draft outcome was predictable on the trade date.
