10月22日，24直播网最新消息透露，金州勇士队正积极寻求有关尼科拉·波尔津吉斯的潜在交易方案。受体位性心动过速综合征（POTS）困扰，球员波尔津吉斯正严肃评估其在篮球领域的未来前景。
ESPN的薪资分析专家鲍比·马克斯透露，波尔津吉斯在今年的6月30日与金州勇士队达成了一笔为期两年的价值4000万美元的续约协议。然而，马克斯强调，尽管波尔津吉斯成功续约，他在下赛季的合同中只有300万美元的薪资得到保障。
Furthermore, the Warriors have now soared beyond the threshold of the second highest payroll bracket, as stipulated by the NBA's collective bargaining agreement, which bars them from acquiring a player with a salary exceeding that of the player they send out in any trade.
