Dwayne Wade reportedly reached a buyout with the Bulls on Monday.
And sometime thereafter, the Warriors reached out to Wade to express interest in the 12-time All-Star, according to Alex Kennedy of HoopsHype.
Wade is reportedly on the verge of nearing an agreement with the Cavs.
The three-time NBA champion averaged 18.3 points, 4.5 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 1.4 steals over 60 games last season.
He averaged career-lows in minutes per game (29.9) and field-goal percentage (43.4) -- something that is expected from somebody who will turn 36 years old in January.
Wade did shoot 31 percent (45-for-145) from 3-point territory -- the second highest mark of his career.
According to Kennedy:

"Throughout his decision-making process, Wade made it clear to interested teams that he wants to play significant minutes on a contender. The Warriors weren't clear about his playing time, so both parties moved on."
The Warriors have 15 players with guaranteed contracts and would need to waive or trade somebody to make room for Wade (or anybody else).
