Honorable Mentions
Although Golden State has a 15-50 record, there’s still a chance they will make their selection out of the top three. When the NBA returns to action, the Warriors will have 17 games remaining on the schedule. During the final stretch of the season, Golden State will get back a healthy Stephen Curry.
The two-time Most Valuable Player missed nearly 60 games on the year and will use the remaining games on the schedule as a tune-up for next season. If Curry’s presence wills Golden State to some wins down the stretch, the current draft order could change by June.
Golden State could also look to move their top pick for a veteran to pair with Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green. If they choose to trade their pick and target a player outside the top-five, there are still some interesting prospects Golden State could select.
