Who was the last ginger on the Warriors? Not sure I am feeling this pick, but hope he works out.

Welcome to North Beach Nico!

Yes!!! Manion is a dog. He’s a good floor general who can shoot the 3, drive & dish. He won’t be better than Bowman early on, but I like This pick.

probably my favorite Myers pick the last few years, tailor made to be back up point in this system. not sure if he can contribute much this year but I'm expecting 20+ minutes by year 2

I'm thinking this big boy was the last ginger we had. If its true, it was ages ago.

Wasn’t he projected as a top-10 pick at one point? What happened?

If he gets any kind of minutes this season, that means team isn't expecting to do much this season because they're keeping the #48th pick on the roster and giving him minutes rather than getting some proven vets for the end of the bench.

Yes he was. No idea why he dropped so much, but I love him as a pick for Golden State. At #48 it may be a steal.
Also I am Italian so I was rooting for him to be drafted by a good team and having him on the Warriors is great!
Btw he's also a player's son, like Klay and Steph. The tradition continues!

His shooting stats aren't great but apparently he has vision and drinking skills?

Who cares if he's a ginger? This isn't a matter of how the young man looks. What really matters is how he's shaped. From what I've read, Mannion has very diminutive little T.Rex arms. He is misshapen...not mis-pigmented.
