The warriors finally couldn't stand it! Since entering 2022, they have only achieved a record of 17 wins and 15 losses. In the past 12 games, the Warriors have lost 9 of them, but fortunately, today they won the Clippers, which temporarily relieved the whole team. Still, the Warriors got the news that they were going to change: They were going to try out free agent Terrique Evans.
Just today, Shams reported that the Warriors will be trying out free agent Terrik Evans this week. Warriors reporter Anthony Slater revealed that the Warriors had already auditioned Evans in Miami last week, and he was very impressed. This will be the second trial.
Evans was the No. 4 pick in 2009 and was named Rookie of the Year in the 2009–10 season. In his rookie season, Evans averaged 20.1 points, 5.3 rebounds and 5.8 assists per game, and was praised as "James Jr."
On May 18, 2019, Evans was disqualified from the NBA for violating the league's drug ban and banned for three years. Before leaving the NBA, Evans averaged 19.4 points, 5.1 rebounds and 5.2 assists per game! Now that the time for the ban has come, he has become a full free agent.
It is worth mentioning that Evans was once a customer of the current Warriors general manager Bob Myers, the Warriors had an interest in Evans as early as 2018, and he also came to the scene today's game against the Clippers. All indications are that Evans signing the Warriors seems to be a foregone conclusion.
If someone comes, someone will leave. If the Warriors do sign Evans, who in the Warriors will leave? Many fans will definitely guess Chiosa. However, Chiosa's contract is a two-way contract, and he does not risk being laid off. Because Evans has been in the league for many years, he can't sign a two-way contract, only a formal contract. Damien Lee, Anderson and Bjlitsa are relatively more dangerous than Chiosa.
Of the three, only Damien Lee is the defender, overlapping with Evans. As a result, Curry's damien Lee is most likely to be cut. In fact, if you think about it, you can understand that Damien Lee is in average form this season. Klay Thompson returns and Moody comes to the fore, completely squeezing his living space in the Warriors. If the Warriors do sign Evans and cut Damien Lee, don't be too surprised.
