The Golden State Warriors had their first direct contact with (Tyson) Chandler on Tuesday, according to sources with knowledge of the discussions.

The Warriors, sources said, have made Chandler their No. 1 roster target — no matter what happens with their recent trade talks with the New Orleans Hornets about Chris Paul — and join the Houston Rockets on the list of teams to directly engage Chandler in the past 48 hours.
