When it comes to building a championship-caliber roster, the Golden State Warriors have long relied on the NBA draft as their foundation. From franchise legends to hidden gems, the annual selection event has brought some of the most memorable talents to the Bay Area. But it's not just the big-name programs that have supplied the Dubs with future stars—smaller schools have also left their mark on the team's history.

One such program is Colorado State University. While the Rams may not be a traditional powerhouse, a handful of their players have heard their names called by Golden State on draft night. Let's take a closer look at every Colorado State player drafted by the Warriors, and see how their paths unfolded.

1967 NBA Draft – Sixth Round (8th pick, 63rd overall)
The Warriors went deep into the draft to select their first Colorado State prospect. Unfortunately, this pick didn't result in a player who would suit up for Golden State.

1967 NBA Draft – Seventh Round (8th pick, 75th overall)
Just one round later, the Warriors took another Ram. But like the previous selection, this player ultimately did not make the team.

While neither of these draft picks panned out into active Warriors, they represent an interesting chapter in the team's scouting history. It's a reminder that even the most successful franchises take chances on talent from all corners of the college basketball landscape.

For the Warriors, the draft has always been about finding the right fit—whether from a blue-blood powerhouse or a program like Colorado State. And while these particular selections didn't lead to court time, they're part of the rich tapestry that makes Golden State's draft story so compelling.
