It's easy to infer what you're implying - and maybe it did slightly contribute to the Young + pick over Doncic decision - but I'm pretty sure they're smart enough to understand talent and winning games is the best PR. It's not like Kevin Huerter fits the mold you're talking about (or Trae Young has crazy street cred like an Allen Iverson.) At least part of the reason they picked Young is that he fits their "Warriors esque" vision where they can create a ton of spacing & a 7'3 guy who can play the 5 defensively and loves to shoot 3's would seem to fit that part of their vision.
