2 Dec
Summary
- LJ Cryer earned a two-way contract with the Golden State Warriors.
- He averaged 24.3 points and 6.1 assists in the G-League.
- Cryer previously played for the Warriors on a training camp deal.
LJ Cryer has officially earned a two-way contract with the Golden State Warriors, following his dominant performances in the G-League with the Santa Cruz Warriors.
This recent signing comes after Cryer was waived by the Warriors following their preseason games. Despite not securing a spot initially, he demonstrated significant motivation and skill in the G-League, averaging an impressive 24.3 points, 6.1 assists, and 4.9 rebounds over seven games. His shooting efficiency, with 44.4% from the field and 41.4% from three-point range, clearly caught the team's attention.
Cryer's journey highlights the potential of G-League play to create pathways to NBA rosters. The 24-year-old guard, originally from Houston, had previously been with the Warriors on a training camp deal in October. This new two-way contract presents him with a valuable chance to contribute to the Stephen Curry-led team.
