Following the OG Anunoby trade between the Toronto Raptors and the New York Knicks, many believe that the 2019 NBA champions will soon trade away Pascal Siakam as well.
Well, as it turns out, the Raptors are reportedly receiving quite some interest around Siakam in recent days.
Among the interested teams are none other than the Golden State Warriors, as they are in search of an elite forward.
However, if the Warriors want to acquire Pascal Siakam, many believe they will have to include their young star, Jonathan Kuminga, in a potential trade package.
NBA reporter Frankred recently urged the Warriors not to trade away Jonathan Kuminga for Pascal Siakam, instead, he gave two names that should be included in a potential trade instead, via his official Twitter handle.
“If I’m the Dubs I would move Wiggins & Moody but I wouldn’t give up Kuminga under any circumstances,” the reporter wrote.
I’ve said in the past, I like the GS Warriors roster & I wouldn’t be adverse towards not making a move but if Pascal Siakam comes with a wink wink deal, I can see it happening but if I’m the Dubs I would move Wiggins & Moody but I wouldn’t give up Kuminga under any circumstances.

The two players that the NBA reporter wants the Warriors to include in the trade are Andrew Wiggins and Moses Moody.
While Andrew Wiggins played a crucial role in the Warriors’ 2022 NBA Championship run, he has simply not been the same player ever since.
As for Moody, considering he was a mid-first-round pick in the 2021 NBA Draft, Jonathan Kuminga is simply more valuable than him.
But one thing that the Warriors need to ensure is the fact that if they trade for Pascal Siakam, how would it affect the team’s chemistry?
After all, Siakam’s arrival will most likely mean Draymond Green getting a reduced role and it could do more harm than good to the team if the four-time NBA champion gets disgruntled.
