Mike Dunleavy Jr.’s tenure as General Manager of the Golden State Warriors has started off on quite a bang.
In just under two weeks as Bob Myers’ successor, Dunleavy has executed the following moves:
- Traded Jordan Poole, Ryan Rollins, a protected 2030 first-round pick, and a 2027 second-round pick to the Washington Wizards for Chris Paul.
- Picked Brandin Podziemski with their 19th pick in the 2023 NBA Draft.
- Convinced the Wizards to add their 57th pick, which the Warriors used to pick Trayce Jackson-Davis.
Those are pretty significant decisions for someone who’s new to the job.
