Warriors Make Waves with Second-Round Draft Pick and CP3 Trade

The Golden State Warriors acquired Trayce Jackson-Davis, a versatile 6’9 forward out of Indiana, with the 57th overall pick in the NBA Draft. Jackson-Davis was a consensus first-team All-American during his senior year, averaging 20.9 points, 10.8 rebounds, 4.0 assists, and 2.9 blocks per game. Many draft experts projected him to go as high as late in the first-round, making him a potential steal for the Warriors. Jackson-Davis is a bit undersized as a center but makes up for it with elite intangibles and a feel for the game that enhances his versatility. He is an imposing interior disruptor whose rim-protecting instincts are off the chart and will surely earn him minutes under Warriors’ head coach Steve Kerr.
