Golden State Warriors trade target: Kyle Lowry, Toronto Raptors

Another potential trade target for the Golden State Warriors is Kyle Lowry. As the Toronto Raptors continue to weigh whether or not they’ll eventually trade their all-star guard, there’s no question that Lowry would be a good fit next to Stephen Curry in Golden State.

Naturally, though, there’d be some concern. At 6-foot-3 and 6-foot, respectively, a Curry and Lowry backcourt would be one of the most undersized duos in the league. But that’s something that both Lowry and Curry have had to battle through their entire careers. And it’s safe to say that both have come out pretty good on that front.

Lowry is also considered a good defender and his effort on both ends of the floor is something that the Warriors would willingly embrace. Lowry’s presence in the lineup would help take some of the playmaking the pressure off Curry and give the team a second scorer that coud create his own offense.

There’d understandably be a few questions and concerns, but Kyle Lowry would be a great addition for the Warriors ahead of the playoff push.
