The Golden State Warriors are considering whether to accept a trade that would send the No. 2 overall pick in Wednesday's NBA draft to the Chicago Bulls in exchange for center Wendell Carter Jr. and the No. 4 selection, sources told The Ringer's Kevin O'Connor.

If Chicago trades up, the club is said to be targeting Memphis big man James Wiseman. The 7-foot-1 center will likely be off the board if the Bulls stay put.

Wiseman has only worked out for the Warriors and the Charlotte Hornets, who own the No. 3 overall pick.

Chicago drafted Carter seventh overall in the 2018 NBA Draft. The Duke product has had trouble staying healthy, though he's been productive when on the court. Carter has averaged 10.8 points, 8.2 boards, and 1.1 blocks during his two seasons in the Windy City.

It's unknown who Golden State would select should the team trade down, though the Warriors have been linked with Maccabi Tel Aviv wing Deni Avdija and Iowa State's Tyrese Haliburton.
