## Resource

The Warriors just pulled off a masterstroke with the 11th pick, snagging Yaxel Lendeborg — a polished, ready-to-play phenom from Michigan who could step in and contribute immediately as Curry’s era winds down. With rare size, physicality, and offensive instincts for his age, Lendeborg’s ceiling might not be sky-high, but his floor is elite. It’s a bold, smart move — the highest pick since 2021 — that contrasts sharply with past misfires like Wiseman and Kuminga. While Lendeborg’s immediate impact is undeniable, his success also forces a sobering look at what might’ve been if the Warriors had trusted readiness over hype earlier.
