With less than two hours to go until this year’s NBA Trade Deadline, there are plenty of teams looking to make moves to bolster their roster. One of those teams looking to make a big trade is the Golden State Warriors<\/a>. On Wednesday, the Warriors acquired Jimmy Butler<\/a> from the Miami Heat<\/a>. However, they are not done just yet. Per reports, the Warriors are pursuing Chicago Bulls<\/a> big man Nikola Vucevic<\/a>. However, as the clock ticks closer to the deadline, it is looking more unlikely that this trade will happen.<\/p>\n

According to Bulls insider K.C. Johnson, there is “no momentum”<\/a> for a trade that would send Vucevic to Golden State. The two-time All-Star is in the midst of his fifth season in Chicago and is a top trade candidate.<\/p>\n
