The Golden State Warriors announced on Thursday that they had recalled forward/center Alen Smailagiu0107 from their G League affiliate, the Santa Cruz Warriors. Smailagiu0107 had surgery on a torn meniscus earlier in the season, so this marks the first time all year that he’ll be with Golden State while healthy.
Smailagiu0107 didn’t play heavy minutes in Santa Cruz, as the team eased him back into action following his rehab. Still, in 10 games and 17.0 minutes per night, Smiley averaged 7.5 points, 4.3 rebounds, 1.5 assists, and 0.8 blocks per game, while shooting 52.
