No more hoarding defenders! The Warriors signed a one-year contract with 2.08 meters inside Saric and could be a dream replacement
On July 8, Beijing time, after the Warriors frantically hoarded guards, now according to Woj, former Suns insider Saric joined the Warriors on a one-year contract. The Warriors have finally made a signing on the shortest board, and Saric is expected to play as Looney or Dream Green's backup this season.
The 29-year-old is a 2.08-meter-tall interior player who can play at No. 4 and No. 5, and he played for the Suns and Thunder last season, averaging 5.8 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game while playing for the Suns, 7.4 points, 3.3 rebounds and 0.9 assists per game with the Thunder, and also played for the Timberwolves and 76ers in his career.
Now joining the Warriors on a one-year contract, Saric is one of the few remaining players in free agency who has been sought after by many teams, given that there are very few good interior players in free agency.
After the Warriors bring in Sarric, they will not fill the 15 roster slots, and will enter the new season with a 14-man roster, leaving a spot to wait for the season buyout market before seeking signings.
