SAN FRANCISCO — In a stunning development, Golden State Warriors power forward Taran Armstrong is reportedly the “odd man out” in Steve Kerr’s rotation, as sources confirm that the Milwaukee Bucks have sent an unexpected and pointed message to the Warriors’ front office regarding his status.

Team insiders say Armstrong, who had shown flashes of promise during training camp and early-season action, has struggled to secure consistent minutes in Kerr’s evolving rotation. With the Warriors experimenting with smaller lineups and prioritizing veteran experience, Armstrong’s role has been in question for weeks.

The situation escalated after the Bucks front office reached out to Golden State with what league insiders described as a “shocking” inquiry about Armstrong’s availability. According to multiple reports, Milwaukee sees potential in Armstrong’s size, passing vision, and defensive upside, viewing him as a possible developmental piece to bolster their forward depth.

While no trade deal has been finalized, the Bucks’ direct approach reportedly surprised Warriors brass, who have been internally debating whether to keep Armstrong for long-term development or free up a roster spot for veteran reinforcements in their playoff push.

Warriors head coach Steve Kerr was tight-lipped when asked about Armstrong’s future, saying only:

> “Taran is a good player who’s working hard. We’re evaluating everything as a staff. It’s part of the league.”

Sources close to Armstrong say he remains professional but frustrated with inconsistent playing time. Meanwhile, Milwaukee’s interest has added urgency to Golden State’s internal discussions about roster balance, with some in the organization seeing this as an opportunity to gain assets or address other needs via trade.

League analysts believe this surprise Bucks move could spark wider trade interest in Armstrong, especially among rebuilding teams or contenders looking for cheap, controllable young talent.
