The NBA Draft lottery is just around the corner, set for Sunday, May 10, and the Golden State Warriors are turning to a familiar face with a proven track record to represent them on the big stage. Assistant general manager Larry Harris has been tapped to attend the lottery, according to NBA insider Monte Poole.
Harris is no stranger to the drama of lottery night. During his tenure as general manager of the Milwaukee Bucks, he was in the room back in 2005 when the team leaped from the sixth pick all the way to the coveted No. 1 spot. That selection turned into Andrew Bogut—a name Warriors fans know well, as he later helped Golden State capture the 2015 championship.
Now, Harris will bring that experience and a bit of lottery luck to the Warriors' cause. Currently, Golden State holds a 77.6% chance of landing the No. 11 pick in the upcoming draft. While that's not a top-tier position, having Harris at the table adds a layer of optimism for a front office hoping to strike gold again.
For a team built on a legacy of smart moves and championship DNA, this is more than just a procedural appearance—it's a chance to channel some of that past success into future potential. Whether Harris can work his magic again remains to be seen, but the Warriors are clearly betting on his history to bring home a winning outcome.
