41. . Center. Golden State Warriors. James Wiseman. 1. player

The Golden State Warriors are rumored to have Wiseman atop their personal big board. While I personally do not agree with the selection, he is a high-floor player that would tremendously benefit by playing next to Draymond Green.

James Wiseman is one of the bigger unknowns in this draft class. He only played against one power five school this past year and was relatively poor (and got into foul trouble) in that game. His defensive ability is not where it should be for a player of his frame, but again, his floor is still there and should be a solid NBA pro.

Another thing to watch out for with this pick is a trade. While the Warriors were the worst team in the NBA last year, they also were without Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green for the majority of the season, and could put together an enticing package for Bradley Beal, Rudy Gobert, or any other star that may be available.
