The Golden State Warriors are a bit preoccupied with their ongoing playoff run but it is never too early to start looking at the upcoming NBA Draft.

Golden State sits at No. 28 in the order, a refreshing sight for a team that has spent the last two seasons jockeying for lottery position. They struck good fortune in 2020, landing the No. 2 overall pick and selecting James Wiseman.
