Trade Analysis

The outgoing value substantially exceeded Golden State's return. Golden State's return was Jason Caffey, while the cost was David Vaughn (III); 1998 second round pick (#34-Shammond Williams); 2000 second round pick (#32-A.J. Guyton). The Warriors side grades at C+ and the other team package at A-. 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.
