When the Warriors drafted James Wiseman second overall in the 2020 NBA draft, the team probably did not envision trading him 2 and 1/2 years later. However, Golden State was never able to develop Wiseman into a consistent contributor, ultimately sending him to the Pistons in a three-team deal last month.
For the first time since the trade, Warriors owner Joe Lacob spoke about Wiseman, and he admitted that trading the young center could look bad in the future.
“We might very well regret that one, longer term or even intermediate term,” Lacob told The Athletic’s Tim Kawakami.
