Conno and Connor has not been working so much on Warriors lately. He's been taking a break to

work on this great minor league baseball series. But Connor, this is a big week for the Warriors.

It's the NBA draft lottery tonight, Tuesday night. And they have as many as two picks that they can get in the draft lottery.

or with these draft picks and a potential trade and things like that. But the headline is

this Minnesota pick, right? Because the Warriors' own pick is

slotted at number 14. Ninety-seven percent chance, 98 percent chance that it stays right

there. So obviously, chances are that it'll end up staying at number 14. But this Minnesota

pick, top three protected, the crown jewel of the Andrew Wiggins D'Angelo Russell swap from a couple

years ago we're finally going to get at least an answer on what the value of that pick will be

do you think that the best what is the best case scenario Connor is it they get the pick this year

at obviously get it they can get it at number four number six seven eight nine or. Best case scenario is it that it conveys this year and they get it?

Or it goes to next year as an unprotected pick?

What do you think the best case scenario?

100% the best case scenario is that they get it this year.

You know, of course you want to get it at number four because this is a, this is kind of a top heavy draft in certain ways.

There's there's five guys that I think are considered potential perennial all-stars in the league.
