The Golden State Warriors have been involved in the NBA lottery 21 times since the event’s inception in 1985. The Warriors have “moved up”
in the draft via the lottery on three occasions, “dropped down” eight times and
held their ground 10 times during the annual ping-pong ball drop. Here is a
look at how the club has fared in its 21 lottery experiences, including its
pre-lottery draft position (based on the previous season's record), eventual
draft position and draft choice:
