For anyone asking “how did he fall to #57?!”… he could have gone much earlier in the 2nd but told teams not to draft him. He wanted to go to the Warriors because they had a role for him. Agents have a lot of sway on where 2nd rounders end up going now.
Any team with a pick ahead of #57 could have drafted him. Doesn’t mean he would have signed, or his agent would have been happy, but they would have gotten rights to sign him for a year. And they chose not to.
