It's been an information-packed couple of days regarding Kristaps Porzingis' future with the Golden State Warriors.

The Stein Line's Jake Fischer has been a central figure in the recent reporting, and here's what we've learned.

- The Warriors want to trade Porzingis, which shouldn't be impossible because he's essentially on an expiring $20 million contract (only $3 million is guaranteed for next season)

- There's a possibility that the team that trades for Porzingis will buy him out or not have to pay him at all if he immediately retires, so trading for him could save a team money

- The Warriors don't want to take on a long-term salary or have to add draft picks to the trade unless it's for a difference-maker

- They don't view Myles Turner as a difference-maker

- They like Jalen Smith, in part because he's on an expiring contract

Smith is a 26-year-old center who is making $9.4 million this season. In seven games (all starts), the 6'9" big is averaging 12.1 points and 8.6 rebounds.…
