They're still discussing a trade to acquire Lauri Markkanen from the Utah Jazz,Markkanen will be eligible for a contract extension beginning on August 6 but is currently set to be one of the most coveted free agents available next offseason. The 27-year-old averaged 23.2 points, 8.2 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 33.
According to Charania, the Warriors have balked at that price tag.
