The Golden State Warriors have 13 players on standard contracts and must add another player before Opening Night. Per League rules, teams must have 14 players on standard contracts. There are consequences for teams that don’t carry fewer than a full 15-player roster. The Warriors<\/a> figure to carry 14 players as they are over the NBA’s second tax apron.<\/p>\n

NBA Rumors: Warriors Still Looking To Add Big Man, More Options Are Popping Up Daily<\/h2>\n

Besides the 13 players on standard contracts, Golden State has reached an agreement with Donovan Williams<\/strong><\/a> on a training camp deal. The Warriors also have an agreement with Usman Garuba<\/strong><\/a> on a two-way deal. Garuba is the second player on a two-way contract with the Dubs.\u00a0 Lester Quinones<\/strong> <\/a>is the other player on a two-way deal.<\/p>\n

If the Warriors have fewer than 15 players on standard contracts, they\u2019ll only be able to use their two-way players for up to 90 combined games. However, if the Warriors go with a full 15-man roster at any point, it would create more options off the bench. Two-way players are each eligible to appear in up to 50 games.<\/p>\n

Golden State has brought in several veterans for a workout over the last month or so. These players have been both wings and bigs<\/a>. It seems like the Warriors have been linked to a different player daily recently. Whoever the Warriors sign, they can only make the veteran’s minimum.<\/p>\n

Tony Bradley is the Latest Player the Warriors have Been Linked To<\/h3>\n

Golden State has been rumored to be interested in signing another big ever since they signed Dario Saric<\/strong><\/a> to a one-year deal in mid-July. However, the Warriors have missed out on all those players, with\u00a0 JaVale McGee<\/strong><\/a> and Harry Giles<\/strong><\/a> being among the players who have signed elsewhere.<\/p>\n

More recently, the Warriors have been linked to Tony Bradley<\/strong><\/a>, Dwight Howard<\/strong><\/a>, Derrick Favors,<\/strong><\/a> and Dewayne Dedmon<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

According to Shams Charania yesterday, Bradley is the player to watch as the Warriors are actively considering signing the 26-year-old center.<\/p>\n
