The Golden State Warriors will be a favorite for the No. 1 overall pick come June, and it’ll be of utmost importance for them to start thinking about who to select as the college basketball season progresses.
After all, when you start the season 2-9 and don’t have your best player returning till at least February, it’s time to go ahead and face the facts. The truth of the matter is that this season the Warriors are a lottery team.
They’ve lost games to Oklahoma City, Phoenix, Utah and several others. With a healthy roster, these games would’ve been easy wins like they were last season, yet they’ve become blowout losses due to a severe injury bug that has taken Golden State by storm.
