List of high-quality authors On February 22, Beijing time, there were 3 messages from the Golden State Warriors, let's take a look.
A contract is signed
Today, Warriors reporter Anthony Slater reported that the Warriors signed free agent Patspooner on a two-way contract. Yesterday, the Warriors turned Quiñones to the regular and Spencer got a free two-way spot. The 27-year-old Spencer is 191m, weighing 93kg, playing as a guard on the court, he was a 20-year undrafted pick but never got a chance to play in the NBA. This season, he has been playing for the Santa Cruz Warriors, a member of the Warriors Development League, playing in 18 games and averaging 26 per game5 minutes to get 15 points 59 rebounds, 4 assists, 13 steals, 43 three-point shooting1%。
So why would the Warriors sign another guard when the guard line is already saturated? The author believes that there are two reasons, on the one hand, Spencer has performed well in the Development League, and the Warriors' signing of him on a two-way contract is not only an affirmation of him, but also can motivate other players to play and help the Warriors tap more talent; On the other hand, Sepancy's style of play is sophisticated, his shooting is accurate, and his style of play is very suitable for the Warriors, who advocate outside offense, and his arrival can increase the three-point firepower of the Warriors' bench. For Spencer, this is a rare opportunity to establish himself in the NBA, and it depends on whether he can grasp it.
The return of the champions is imminent
Today, according to Jazz reporter Tony Jones, the Jazz have agreed to Otto Porter's request to leave, and the two sides will discuss a buyout. Later, according to a report from the Golden State family, once Porter becomes a free agent, then he will most likely choose to return to his old club, the Warriors. Porter and Curry were smiling and chatting before the Warriors' away game against the Jazz on Feb. 16, and it now appears that the two sides are plotting to renew their relationship. In the 21-22 season, Porter played in 63 regular season games for the Warriors, averaging 22 games per game2 minutes to get 82 points 57 rebounds 14 assists 11 steal; In the playoffs, Porter played in 19 games, averaging 19 per game5 minutes to get 54 points 34 rebounds 18 assists 09 steals, 49 percent shooting percentage from the field and three-point shooting4% and 404%, which is an important contribution point on the Warriors' bench and one of the heroes of the team's eventual championship.
It is worth mentioning that the Warriors currently have a total of 14 official contracts on their roster, and there is just one spot left for Porter. For the Warriors, Porter is the type of forward that the team urgently needs to add, except for the body is a little brittle, both offensive and defensive ends can bring enough help, and Porter has played a season with the Warriors, and the chemistry should be fast. However, it should be noted that according to the rules, if Porter wants to play in the playoffs with other teams, he must fully sign by March 1 local time, plus a 48-hour post-buyout clarification period, which means that Porter must reach a buyout with the Jazz on the 26th at the latest.
