The 2021 NBA Draft looks like one that will have major implications for those who select in the lottery. With the potential to land two quality picks, the Golden State Warriors better be paying attention to the upcoming class.

With just a little bit of luck, the Golden State Warriors can enter the 2021 NBA Draft with multiple picks in the first round.

Due to their trade with Minnesota, the Warriors have about a 60 percent chance of landing a top-five pick in the upcoming draft. As long as the Wolves don’t secure a pick in the 1-to-3 range, the Dubs will obtain the selection.

Meanwhile, the Warriors are currently on the edge of missing the playoffs, something that could actually be good for them. In addition to resting their stars, it would grant them another spot in the upcoming lottery.

So, using Tankathon’s draft lottery simulation, we checked out a scenario in which the Dubs luck out and get two picks in the top 15. Without further ado, let’s jump into our first mock draft of the year.
