Report: Former Thunder Usman Garuba signs two-way deal with Warriors
The Golden State Warriors have signed former Oklahoma City Thunder center Usman Garuba to a two-way deal, per The Athletic’s Shams Charania.
Garuba’s stay with the Thunder was a short one. He was part of a multi-player trade with the Atlanta Hawks in July. His OKC tenure only lasted a little over a month as the Thunder waived him in late August.
The 2021 first-round pick now joins his fourth team of the offseason by signing a two-way deal with the Warriors. He spent his first two seasons with the Houston Rockets, averaging 2.8 points and 3.9 rebounds.
Garuba’s former teammate TyTy Washington Jr. was also part of the Hawks trade after both spent a year in Houston together. After a brief summer league stint, Washington Jr.’s time with the Thunder also came to a quick end when they waived him in August.
Washington Jr. also signed a two-way deal with the Milwaukee Bucks afterward.
