It was oh so close! Warriors Nation almost had Gay in the Bay, but ended up with 7-0, 250 pound, 19 year old Center Patrick O'Bryant from Bradley with the #9 pick and 7-2, 240 pound, 21 year old Center Kosta Perovic from Serbia with the #38 pick.
#9 pick Patrick O'Bryant aka "The Chef" already seems more agile than the current Warrior centers!
#48 pick Kosta Perovic is... flexible!
We'll be dropping information about the Warriors' new twin towers in the near future, so keep checking back.
Post any information you can find on our two newest Warriors in the comments section or start a diary. Also, vote on how you think the Warriors did in the 2006 NBA Draft to the right.
Stay tuned all off season long for more rumors, the latest on Warrior trades (probably after July 1st), report cards, and some special interviews with some surprise friends...
For those in Warriors Nation who are little upset about how the Warriors did today, sleep well knowing this:
- The new NBA Game Ball is going to help Warrior Mike Dunleavy tremendously
- For the second straight year the Warriors picked the leading vote getter from the Golden State of Mind draft poll. Coincidence? We think not.
