Trade Analysis

The incoming value was somewhat stronger than the cost. Golden State's return was Nate Williams, while the cost was 1978 second-round pick (#35-Tommie Green). The Warriors side grades at C and the other team package at C-. The assessment weighs actual NBA production, contract and competitive-window context, and any realized draft conversion; it does not assume that later outcomes were perfectly predictable on the trade date.
