That player would be Golden State wing alum Alec Burks. After ending his college career at Colorado, Burks was picked up with the 12th overall selection of the 2011 NBA draft by the Utah Jazz.

The Grandview, Missouri native would play parts of the first 8 seasons of his pro career with the Jazz. He would also have stints with the Cleveland Cavaliers, and Sacramento Kings before he'd sign with the Dubs in 2019.
