Good Morning Dub Nation,
As the NBA Finals conclude this week, all focus officially shifts towards the upcoming 2023 NBA Draft. Last week, experts had the Golden State Warriors selecting Duke center Dereck Lively II with the 19th pick of the June 22nd draft, however, the Blue Devils big man has risen up the boards, putting him out of the team’s range.
The new name generating buzz for the Warriors’ pick is combo guard Kobe Bufkin. Standing at 6-4, 187 pounds, the 19-year-old sophomore out of Michigan projects to be a versatile offensive player who shows potential of playing both on and off the ball.
