The Golden State Warriors heard rumors that the New York Knicks were going to draft Jeremy Tyler with their 40th pick. The Warriors quickly got on the phone with Charlotte and bought the rights to their 39th pick to select Tyler, since he wouldn't be available at 44, where the Warriors were selecting. 

According to from mercurynews.com:

I asked if the Warriors knew they had to move up from 44 to 39 to get Jeremy Tyler…

LACOB: You asked me do we know if other teams were getting ready to buy a pick right there. Actually I talked to Bob who confirmed for me today that the Knicks were, at 40, all set to draft Jeremy Tyler. I can’t tell you if that’s fact or not fact, but that’s what I heard.
