Richard was the last of three Gators to hear their name called in the draft. Star point guard Walter Clayton went No. 18 overall to the Jazz, and Alijah Martin went No. 39 overall to the Raptors. The two-guard will compete for minutes with Brandin Podziemski, Moses Moody, Buddy Hield and possibly Gary Payton II.

Before closing out the second round, the Warriors traded up to the No. 56 pick to select Florida national champ Will Richard.
