Warriors To Keep Open Roster Spot For Potential Offseason Buyout Candidates 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Wed Jul 12, 2023 3:47 pm

The Golden State Warriors are likely to keep their 14th roster spot open as the remainder of the offseason plays out, sources tell Anthony Slater of The Athletic


The extra flexibility would allow the Warriors to make a trade if something unexpectedly materializes, or they could sign a player that suddenly becomes available such as Rudy Gay.


Gay has $6.5 million remaining on his expiring contract and is on an Oklahoma City Thunder that is overcommitted on guaranteed roster spots. The Warriors have had interest in Gay in the past.


Golden State similarly added JaMychal Green and Ty Jerome late in the 2022 offseason.

Not sure how much Rudy Gay has left in the tank at this point. He couldn't even get productive minutes for the last couple of years in Utah and was forced into a vet mentorship role.
