Warriors to approve four-team trade

The Warriors made headlines after almost rejecting the trade when the injury report came out that Gary Payton II would need more time to heal his injury, but why almost cancel the trade due to an injury? Golden State believed the Portland Trail Blazers withheld information regarding the health of the player.

Long story short, they accepted the trade before the Sunday deadline. There was a lot of uncertainty about if they were going to accept the trade, which would have affected everyone involved in the trade.

But, in the end, the Hawks get Saddiq Bey, the Warriors get Gary Payton II, the Pistons get James Wiseman, and the Blazers get five second-rounders and Kevin Knox.

After a few days of uncertainty, the deal is finally completed.

The injury bug has struck again for Nikola Topic, as, according to multiple reports, he has undergone testicular surgery that will force him out of action for 4-6 weeks.

This comes after a Sunday preseason showing of him putting up ten points and seven assists in 31 minutes for the Oklahoma City Thunder.

The procedure happened on Monday for the former 12th overall pick of the 2024 NBA draft.

Topic, who is 20-years-old, sat out the entire 2024-25 season due to recovering from a torn ACL he suffered ahead of the draft.
