TORONTO -- With the trade deadline just over three weeks away, Golden State star Stephen Curry wants to see the slumping Warriors get better but not at the expense of making a "desperate" move that would "deplete the future" for the franchise.

The Warriors fell to under .500 for the first time all season with a 104-101 loss to the Toronto Raptors at Scotiabank Arena on Monday. Since a 12-3 start, the Warriors have lost 17 of 24 games and now stand at 19-20.

Still, Curry doesn't want to see panic and echoed a sentiment that general manager Mike Dunleavy Jr., head coach Steve Kerr and star forward Draymond Green have been saying since training camp started in Hawaii -- the Warriors should not make any rash decisions in trades, especially if they have to surrender assets like young players or draft picks.

"Desperate trades or desperate moves that deplete the future, there is a responsibility on allowing or keeping the franchise in a good space and good spot when it comes to where we leave this thing when we're done," Curry said. "Doesn't mean that you're not trying to get better. It doesn't mean that you're not active in any type of search to, if you have an opportunity where a trade makes sense, or even in the summer free agency [move] makes sense. You want to continue to get better.
