After weeks of trade rumors, the Golden State Warriors opted to keep and use both of their first-round picks — G League Ignite's Jonathan Kuminga at No. 7 and Arkansas' Moses Moody at No. 14.
Moody, a one-and-done freshman guard who played for the Arkansas Razorbacks, was reportedly high up on the Dubs' draft board and in consideration for their first selection. He averaged 16.8 points and 5.8 rebounds as part of an electric Razorbacks squad that advanced all the way to the Elite Eight before falling to the Baylor Bears.

Cunningham nearly speechless after being picked No. 1 by Pistons (2:11)
The Pistons select Cade Cunningham with the No. 1 pick in the NBA draft, and Cunningham goes through all kinds of emotions afterward. (2:11)
The first three picks of the 2021 NBA draft went as planned: Cade Cunningham to the Detroit Pistons, Jalen Green to the Houston Rockets and Evan Mobley to the Cleveland Cavaliers. But then, starting with the fourth pick, chaos ensued, with intriguing selections and draft-night trades taking over the spotlight.
The Toronto Raptors surprised many by selecting Florida State's Scottie Barnes with the No. 4 pick, and the Oklahoma City Thunder used their high lottery pick, No. 6, to make the first international selection of the draft, selecting Australia's Josh Giddey.

Hold onto your phones, people. The days leading up to the 2021 NBA draft could get wild.
NBA scouts and executives insist there have been more trade discussions this year than usual, and teams also expect more higher-profile players to be included in deals as well. Let's dive into the latest NBA draft buzz from around the league:
While it's already been reported that the Houston Rockets have made offers to the Detroit Pistons, I'm told the Oklahoma City Thunder have also tried (and failed) to strike a deal for the No. 1 pick by offering Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the No. 6 pick.

The San Antonio Spurs own the No. 12 pick in the 2021 NBA draft, but they are reportedly looking to move into the top 10.
Sports Illustrated reported the news Monday but noted the Spurs could very well stick with the 12th pick.
"Sources say the Spurs have angled to move up in the draft and into the top 10," Woo wrote in a mock draft. "They have historically been content to stand pat on draft night, however, and the better bet may be San Antonio making a pick here."
Bleacher Report's Jonathan Wasserman's latest mock draft had the Spurs taking combo guard Josh Giddey of the Adelaide 36ers, who play in the National Basketball League in Australia.

If there’s one thing clear about the NBA offseason, it’s this: The Golden State Warriors will always be involved in any kind of rumor.
The phone lines must be ringing off the hook for the Warriors, who continue to be busy as they hope to tinker with their roster to maximize main man Stephen Curry’s remaining years. Not that he’s slowing down anytime soon, though.
After a possible trade involving Philadelphia 76ers guard Ben Simmons reportedly hit a snag because the Warriors felt the asking price was too much, coach Steve Kerr and the rest of the decision-makers are now looking at the NBA Draft to shore up their lineup.
