Warriors linked to Alabama point guard in NBA mock draft
With Steve Kerr's future in jeopardy, could the Warriors select their point guard of the future?
In a recent mock draft done by The Ringer, the Golden State Warriors were linked to a different selection with the No. 11 pick. This time, Golden State was predicted to select Labaron Philon Jr.
, a point guard out of Alabama. Last season with Alabama, Philon Jr. averaged 22 points per game, five assists, 3.
5 rebounds and 1. 2 steals. Kyle Mann of The Ringer heaps praise on Philon Jr.
, saying that he could be the Warriors' "own version of Rajon Rondo. " If Golden State decides to move on from Steve Kerr, a shift toward a youthful roster could be on the horizon. For that reason, the selection of the 20-year-old makes sense if the team views him as the point guard of the future.
