Overview
- Lendeborg completed a pre-draft workout at Chase Center on Thursday and told reporters he sees himself as a complementary playmaker and defender next to Stephen Curry.
- He arrives in the draft with a decorated résumé — Big Ten Player of the Year, consensus All‑American and a 2026 NCAA champion — and is widely viewed as one of the most NBA‑ready prospects in the class.
- Teams have given Lendeborg extensive looks around the league, and he has remaining workouts scheduled with the Los Angeles Clippers and Atlanta Hawks.
- Golden State owns the No. 11 pick and has held Lendeborg among its top workout visitors while general manager Mike Dunleavy says the front office is keeping trade options open and will bring additional prospects in for evaluation.
- The decision the Warriors make will hinge on whether they prioritize immediate rotation help and proven polish or a younger player with higher long‑term upside, and Lendeborg’s final landing spot will likely be shaped by his remaining workouts, interviews and pre‑draft trade interest ahead of the June 23–24 draft.
