Transferred from the Nuggets to the Thunder, as planned JaMychal Green won’t stay there. Woj and Shams reports that the interior is finalizing a buyout. Once free he will join the Golden State Warriors, normally for the minimum.
He had an $8.2 million player option, which he had activated to be traded. Sam Presti had announced a few days later that a solution would be found so that he could join a team with much more ambitions.
On paper he is a very interesting recruit for the champions, who lost two stretch-4s with Otto Porter Jr. et Nemanja Bjelica.
Last season the strong winger shot 6.5 points at 48.6% including 26.6% from far and 4.2 rebounds, a drop in performance after a very good 2020-21 season in the Rockies.
Veteran forward JaMychal Green is working toward a contract buyout with Oklahoma City, and once that’s completed and he’s cleared waivers, Green intends to sign with Golden State, sources tell ESPN.
