Warriors Weigh Trading Down in Next Week's NBA Draft
The Golden State Warriors may be open to trading down in next week's NBA Draft, the San Francisco Chronicle's Ron Kroichick reports, citing a Monday workout at Chase Center stocked with prospects projected to land below their No. 11 slot. Golden State owns its highest pick in five years after an injury-marred 37-45 season. Bringing in players like Houston big man Chris Cenac Jr., a projected mid-to-late first-round selection, hints at interest in sliding back for extra assets. For fantasy purposes, the takeaway is muted: any rookie would still have to fight for minutes on a veteran core built around Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, and Jimmy Butler, who is recovering from a torn right ACL and faces uncertainty for the start of next season. A move down would likely push rookie fantasy relevance further out while signaling the front office values flexibility and immediate roster help.
