Warriors consider Hannes Steinbach as top draft prospect for rebounding help
Summary

The Golden State Warriors are focused on Hannes Steinbach as a potential pick with the No. 11 selection in the upcoming NBA draft. Steinbach, a 20-year-old forward/center from Washington, averaged 18.5 points and 11.5 rebounds per game last season, leading the nation in total rebounds. Known for his rebounding prowess, the Warriors hope he could address their struggles on the boards, having not had a player average more than six rebounds per game last season. Steinbach's experience in Germany and performance in international play have contributed to his rising profile. His combine results have also allayed concerns about his physicality in the NBA.
