Warriors Missed Burries, Got MVP Instead | Golden State Warriors News
Description
The Miami Heat pulled off a shocking trade, snagging Giannis Antetokounmpo and leaving the Golden State Warriors reeling—not just from losing their top target, but because the timing of the deal threw off their draft strategy. The Heat sent Milwaukee the 13th pick, which gave the Bucks an extra asset to grab Nate Ament, then used the 10th pick to steal Brayden Burries—the player the Warriors desperately wanted at 11. With Burries gone, Golden State took Yaxel Lendeborg, who ended up winning Summer League MVP and leading his team to a title. While the Warriors may rue missing out on Burries, they’ve got a proven winner—and a championship—to show for it.
