Mike Dunleavy Jr.’s first major decision as general manager of the Golden State Warriors will come on Thursday night with the 2023 NBA draft.
While the first three picks will likely include Victor Wembanyama, Scoot Henderson and Brandon Miller, there are still several question marks surrounding what Dunleavy Jr. and Steve Kerr will do with the No. 19 overall selection in Thursday’s draft.
Will the Warriors trade the pick for an established veteran to play alongside Steph Curry and Klay Thompson? Will Golden State stick with the pick and select another young prospect to add to their core that includes recent first round picks Jonathan Kuminga, Moses Moody, Patrick Baldwin Jr. and Jordan Poole.
Before Dunleavy Jr., Kerr and the rest of the Warriors’ front office answer those looming questions, here’s everything you need to know about Thursday’s draft, including how and where to watch the draft.
