NBA Draft 2021: Ranking the most intriguing teams, from Warriors trade rumors to Knicks’ pivotal decisions

Article Summary:
Golden State Warriors
Going star-hunting?
With the expectation of being championship contenders once again next season, the Warriors front office will certainly explore deals involving this year’s lottery picks at No. 7 and No. 14. With a perceived drop-off between the No. 4 and No. 5 picks in this year’s draft, there could be a lot of teams willing to trade up to get Toronto’s pick. The Magic are in a full-scale rebuild after trading away Nikola Vucevic, Aaron Gordon and Evan Fournier last season, so they have important decisions to make with No. 5, and later No. 8, as they attempt to brighten their future. Oklahoma City Thunder
A true wild card
OKC could have come away with two top-five picks in this draft – instead it’s slated for Nos.
