The Texas alum spent three seasons with the team between 2016 and 2019 and won two championships with them. Nothing is imminent, but if the Warriors land Durant, it is fair to assume Green would be involved in the trade.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, ESPN&#8217;s Brian Windhorst recently spoke about Durant potentially rejoining the Warriors.

With the Warriors, he became a defensive anchor and a four-time champion. He has played an essential role in the Warriors&#8217; dynasty and is potentially a future Hall of Famer. Despite this, the Warriors are struggling. Though they had a hot start, they are now just 25-24 and own the No. 10 seed in the West. As they aim for a playoff push, a major trade might make sense for the team. And if that means moving on from Green, that seems like a legitimate possibility.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a9 Kelley L Cox-Imagn Images<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The NBA Trade Deadline is a little over 24 hours away, but we have already seen a lot of major moves.
