Warriors remain interested in Lauri Markkanen

Udonis Haslem and Mike Miller welcomed The Athletic insider Shams Charania, with some astonishing revelations. While Jazz insider Tony negated any trade possibilities for Markkanen, Mike contradicted the same, when he said, “I don’t think Golden State can be done. I think if you’re really serious about winning, they have to make a big move.” As Miller expressed his flow of thoughts, Shams barged in between to add, “They are trying to get Lauri Markkanen,” balancing the possibility. However, Ja Morant’s agent quietly whispered to Shams just a moment later, “I think they’re going.” It was a shocker to The Athletic insider, as well, since he asked Mike Miller again to ensure, “You think they’re going?” to which Mike nodded in affirmation. As the chat proceeded, Charania asked him for safety if that was a piece of inside news. However, Mike immediately turned things around, further saying, “He can’t stop working,” addressing Shams Charania’s subtle observation on The OGs. -via Essentially Sports / August 1, 2024
