The Warriors pursued Markkanen before his contract extension last summer, with an exposed offer centered around Moses Moody and multiple first-round picks, plus draft swap rights and second-round picks.

However, his market value has likely dropped from last year. Markkanen’s physical condition and performance have declined, making him seem unworthy of the new deal. In 2024-25, he played only 47 games due to injury, averaging career-lows of 19 Pts/5.9 Reb/1.5 Ast on 42.3% FG (career worst) and 34.6% 3PT (second-worst of his career).

Rebound Potential at Age 28

Despite the downturn, the 28-year-old could rejuvenate in a new environment. NBA reporter Jake Weinbach has noted that teams like the Heat, Pistons, 76ers, and Spurs may inquire about Markkanen this summer.
