Even before the start of “free agency”, Dario Saric was targeted by the Warriors. It must be said that Golden State needs reinforcements inside but that the club does not really have any financial leeway. The Croatian, whose rating is not very high, therefore seemed to be an ideal target for Steve Kerr.
And on day eight of free agency, Dario Saric is well on his way to the Bay, via a one-year contract, according to ESPN. Why didn’t he sign before? Because like Christian Woodanother player still free, he was hoping for a contract higher than the veteran minimum…
In the absence of such an offer, the former Sixers, Wolves and Suns will join the Warriors via the minimum. A good deal for the 2022 champions since they recover a solid and intelligent player, capable of rendering services under the circle while also dismissing the game (36% success rate at 3-pointers in the NBA).
Enough to complete an interior sector which was limited and above all very small, with Kevon Looney (2m06), Draymond Green (1m98), the rookie Trayce Jackson-Davis (2m06) and Jonathan Kuminga (2m03), until now.
Free agent F Dario Saric has agreed on a one-year deal with the Golden State Warriors, sources tell ESPN. Saric was one of the most sought-after players left on the market.
