Warriors reportedly land $15M former first-rounder who was waived by 76ers for LeBron James

The Golden State Warriors have bolstered their roster by acquiring Georges Niang and Brandon Williams, both former first-round picks. Niang, with a $3.88M salary, has a partially guaranteed deal, while Williams, at $1.4M if he makes the opening night roster, could earn up to $2.63M. Both signings come after the Warriors struggled to secure LeBron James and Anthony Davis last offseason.

Additionally, the Warriors secured former 18th overall pick Dalen Terry, who was waived by the Philadelphia 76ers to make room for LeBron James and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope. Terry, who has earned $15M in his young NBA career, will learn from superstar point guard Steph Curry, potentially elevating his game and securing a more permanent role on the team.
