One NBA writer is proposing that the Golden State Warriors acquire Jarrett Allen from the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Andy Bailey of Bleacher Report proposed the following trade idea between the Warriors and Cavaliers:

The Deal: Draymond Green and a top-five protected 2027 first-round pick for Jarrett Allen and Sam Merrill

Some people around the NBA believe the Warriors could trade Green since the power forward keeps getting in trouble with the league office and Bailey thinks Allen could help the Dubs.

“Allen wouldn’t bump Looney from the rotation entirely, but he’s a better shot-blocker and above-the-rim finisher,” Bailey wrote in his NBA trade proposal. “He’s an ideal fit alongside a point guard like Chris Paul, who’s long been known for his pick-and-roll work with rim-running bigs.”

The Warriors could start Stephen Curry, Chris Paul, Klay Thompson, Jonathan Kuminga and Allen if this trade proposal happened.

Allen is averaging 14.4 points, 9.7 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.9 blocks this season while shooting 67.2% from the field and 71.0% from the free-throw line. He has 10 double-doubles.

A one-time All-Star, Allen is making $20 million this season. He signed a five-year, $100 million contract with the Cavaliers in August 2021.

Allen began his career with the Brooklyn Nets. He has career averages of 12.2 points, 8.9 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 0.6 steals and 1.3 blocks with the Nets and Cavaliers.
