Warriors' Lajae Jones: Selected at No. 54 by Golden State
Rotowire
Jones was selected by the Warriors with the No. 54 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft.
Jones averaged 12.7 points, 5.7 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 1.7 triples, 1.2 steals and 1.0 blocks per game on 43/33/76 shooting splits during his senior season at Florida State, and he projects to be a 3-and-D kind of guy for the Warriors. If Jimmy Butler (knee) and Moses Moody (knee) begin the year on the sidelines, there could be a path to minutes for Jones.
