Let's keep these comments to Draft discussion, and have non-Draft comments in the parade thread.

Dalen Terry, for sure. IMO should have been in the discussion for the main tournament.

Another Dalen Terry vote. One of the funnest-to-watch players in the whole tourney with those tasty dimes.

Totally random, but I noticed Walker Kessler and Rollins have the same size hands... bottom 5 in the draft combine (width).

Caleb Houstan is my vote!

Cus reasons that have absolutely nothing to do with the fact that he's from University of Michigan. :D

Not a vote. Just read Yahoo’s final mock.

LaRavia to GSW including this: “high basketball IQ and relentless work ethic.”

Made me a little moist.

Terry would be amazing, but hard to see him falling to #28. Maybe we could move up a bit by throwing in the second rounders?

Worth noting that SAS and HOU both have three first round picks, the third of which sit at #25 and #26, respectively. Gotta think it wouldn’t be too tough to move up to one of those spots if the Ws really have their heart on someone and are worried about (say) Miami snatching him up right before us.

Ooo I like this idea of trading up!

Dalen Terry....EA's mini eval used the phrase 'complement in college' ....just what the Warriors Core needs role players to complement their game.

Lots of intriguing players in this list, but I think I'd go with Terry. Another crafty passer with a good handle sounds like something we could use and he has the fewest red flags in the scouting reports IMO.

Terry please! Kid just gives off those Tyrese-Haliburton-brand good vibes. I love the efficient passing (2.8 AST:TO ratio) from a wing, his measurements are elite, he appears to have plus athleticism (though no combine measurements). If he was 15 pounds heavier and took 5 more shots per game he'd be going in the lottery. Hopefully folks get scared off by the low scoring totals and he's still there for us at 28, but it's not looking promising at this point.

I don't really see the appeal of these other 3, I suppose next up would be Houstan purely on pre-draft pedigree, but I'll be disappointed if he's the pick.

Out of this bunch I'd take Terry. Good length, 7' wingspan, Pac-12 All Defense, point guard skills, spot up shooting. At #28 it's a crapshoot anyway, and assuming we bring back most of the current team, we can afford to give him G League time to develop.

Wing defense always can play. I'll take Terry.

I like Terry the best of these 4 but does he duplicate Moody?

What's wrong with having 2 Moodies?

Seems like Terry might have a bit more passing flair and jump, at the expense of less-polished offense than Moody.

For fun, Moody's draft analysis video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMU0S6Iv08U
