AUGUST 22: The Warriors have officially signed House, according to RealGM’s transactions log.
JULY 25: The Warriors are signing free agent swingman Danuel House to a one-year contract, league sources tell Shams Charania of Yahoo Sports (Twitter link). House’s deal will be a non-guaranteed training camp contract, according to Monte Poole of NBC Sports Bay Area (Twitter link).
House, who went undrafted out of Texas A&M in 2016, has spent time with the Wizards, Suns, and various G League teams since entering the league. Last season, he inked a two-way contract with Phoenix in December and appeared in 23 games for the club.
While House’s overall numbers with the Suns were modest, he finished the season strong when he got the opportunity to take on a major role down the stretch. In Phoenix’s final five games, the 25-year-old averaged 14.6 PPG, 6.2 RPG, and 3.4 APG with a .492 FG%. That wasn’t enough to earn a qualifying offer last month though, so he became an unrestricted free agent on July 1.
Golden State currently has 13 players on guaranteed contracts, with restricted free agent Patrick McCaw expected to get a new deal at some point. If the team carries a full 15-man roster into the regular season, House should get a chance to earn that final opening, but the in-the-tax Warriors may leave that 15th spot open to start the year.
Welcome House to the Mansion baby!!!
So he is gonna collect a ring at season’s end…. good for him.
I like this signing. House, in my opinion, is better than McCaw though he’s 2-3 years older. House is better defensively and a much better shooter from inside the arc than McCaw. Both are listed at the same height though House has 20 more pounds on his frame. House signed a 2-year deal with GSW according to Spotrac so it looks like he’s going to get some playing time unless this was a non-guaranteed contract.
House is a better scoring option. McCaw is the better wing defender. Did you watch them in college orrrrr
What the warriors need is a true healthy center
Sasa or bogut
Something like that
Bogut and healthy don’t belong in the same sentence.
