Golden State Warriors NBA Draft Big Board: 5 Prospects to target
By Tony Pesta
It’s about that time. The 2021 NBA Draft is a month away and the Golden State Warriors know exactly where they will be selecting. While it’s possible the franchise elects to trade one (or both) of their picks, here are the five prospects they should be looking at in the event they don’t make any exchanges.
The Golden State Warriors will be selecting seventh and 14th overall in the 2021 NBA Draft. Here are the prospects they need to be studying.
Winning the seventh and 14th overall picks, the Dubs are in a pretty good position to add some young talent to their team for cheap. And, they have a pretty good history when selecting at No. 7, picking both Stephen Curry and Chris Mullin at that position in years passed.
Nonetheless, this year is a little different. The Warriors aren’t a desolate lottery team looking for superstar talent. While they will certainly look for the most talented prospects available, there is also good reason to simply draft a developed player who fits their mold and can have an immediate impact.
The Draft Combine is in full swing, running from June 21-27 as numerous potential picks for the Warriors get their first taste of NBA-level basketball. This has provided us with intriguing measurements for each player the Dubs could select. So without further ado, let’s get into this mini big board.
