No mock draft excitement for us! LOL

Only a couple more weeks (June 22 is the lottery) before we know the fate of whether or not we get to dive into our in depth draft scouting reports. Lol

We won't have to dive too deep. It'll be top 3 or nothing. There's really only 4 or maybe 5 guys I think you could consider drafting in that range. The consensus is wrong more than we like to think, but there's plenty of reason to think the consensus perception of a clear top 4 or 5 guys is probably pretty accurate this year.

But......there is also a chance of putting the pick in a larger trade or even the wildly sexy trade down!!! :)

Edit: Also when the lottery is decided (especially if the Wolves lose their pick) it will be worth looking at what teams have multiple picks because I bet the Wolves will look for ways to get at least a 2nd round pick in this draft even though they have a ton of young players and not a ton of roster spots.

I don't want a pick this year. I have however looked at mocks to see what the Warriors can do.


Just because this team doesn't have a pick doesn't mean Rosas shouldn't be trying to add another Naz Reid level gem.

Bolmaro + a two way guy is good enough for me to go into next season in terms of young unproven talent.

I'd love to get a top three pick this year. However, I don't think we'll end up getting the pick and I'm fine with that. I have no doubt Bolmaro will be with the Wolves next season and that's a nice infusion of young talent. And there are always undrafted free agents like Naz Reid, JMac. In any event, we have little roster room and similarly little salary space under the luxury tax threshold to add players.
