Warriors reportedly could target Kawhi Leonard and LeBron James this offseason

Help could be on the way for Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors next offseason. The Warriors could reportedly try to acquire Kawhi Leonard and LeBron James this offseason, according to NBA insider Marc Stein. The Warriors reportedly tried to trade for Leonard before this year's trade deadline after the Los Angeles Clippers traded James Harden to the Cleveland Cavaliers and Ivica Zubac to the Indiana Pacers .

The Clippers ultimately held on to Leonard and paired him with Darius Garland, whom the team acquired in the Harden trade. At 38-36, the Clippers are currently the eighth seed in the Western Conference and have not advanced past the first round since the 2020-2021 season. With the Clippers pivoting from an older roster to bring in more youth at the deadline, the Warriors are expected to once again try to trade for the 34-year-old All-Star.

Leonard has averaged 28. 3 points, 6. 3 rebounds on 50.

4% from the field and 38. 1% from 3 in 58 games this season. James would be easier for the Warriors to acquire than Leonard.
