The Golden State Warriors continued fleshing out their bench Thursday, agreeing to a one-year contract with veteran big man Anderson Varejao. Varejao's PR firm passed along the news, per Diamond Leung of the Bay Area News Group.
The deal will be worth the veteran's minimum, a total of $1.55 million due to Varejao's NBA service time. Coming over to Golden State after a midseason salary dump by the Cavaliers, Varejao suited up for 22 regular-season games for the Warriors. He averaged 2.6 points and 2.3 rebounds.
The 33-year-old played intermittently throughout Golden State's postseason run but was thrust into a greater spotlight in the NBA Finals.
