Amidst the fervor of the NFL Draft, let’s not forget the impending excitement brewing in the NBA realm, particularly regarding the Warriors’ Draft Strategy. Despite the absence of a first-round pick, the Golden State Warriors aren’t out of the game just yet. Mike Dunleavy Jr. and Steve Kerr could still make waves by snagging a player in the second round.
Warriors’ Draft Strategy: PJ Hall’s Second Round Steal
The NBA mock draft predicts that the Warriors, with Kevin O’Connor from The Ringer as its author, will take PJ Hall, a forward from the premier ACC conference. Through this lens, O’Connor implies that Shai’s independent playing system harmonizes with the Warriors’ identity, perhaps making him to get his minutes immediately after finding his beat on the court.
Despite playing the role of a lone ox in the Tigers’ presence on the NCAA Tournament stage in his fourth season, which he was considered to be a great force to contend with. Standing tall at 6 feet 10 inches, his stats speak volumes: a demationalizing 18.3 points per game with a shooting rate of 48.8%, along with 6.4 boards and 1.4 assists on average per match.
It is almost impossible to just stay there and to remember the time when Hall played gloriously and unleashed his talent against Georgia Tech and eventually scored 31 points and gathered 17 rebounds. The sequence of breathtaking moments have no place to end in Hall’s defense and white haired spectators was completely flabbergasted. However, the seven double-doubles in the season served as the testimony to Hall’s constancy on court, and the seventh double-double performance, in particular, strengthened these claims.
With a little under a month left before the NBA draft (scheduled in the Barclays Center, New York, on the 26th of June), the air hangs thick with upcoming events. There’s a good chance that guy in Golden State uniform will become the new key player for ‘Warriors’, another important piece for the team. The wait is excruciating, but yes, the culmination is tasty. Thus, we’ll stick to following the nerve-racking draft-day scenes where players will be fulfilled, joining their chosen university team and some will still be disappointed.
