With First Career Training Camp, James Wiseman Could Finally Get Settled

The encouraging injury news lately for Golden State fans has revolved mostly around Klay Thompson’s promising workout videos and potentially-restored mobility.

Now-second year center James Wiseman – whose rookie season ended when he tore his meniscus in his right knee in an April 10 game against the Rockets – now appears poised to return for his first career NBA training camp.

Klay Thompson posts tribute for the late Michael K. Williams to social media, "A true leader, you will be so missed brother"

Actor Michael K. Williams — who most notably played the character Omar Little on hit TV series “The Wire” — was found dead on Monday in his Brooklyn penthouse, due to what is suspected to be a heroin overdose, according to multiple reports.

Williams, 54, was vocal about his issues with drugs over the course of his career. He admitted during the filming of “The Wire” that when he was getting into the role of Little, a character who robbed drug dealers, it affected him in his real life.

Klay Thompson, who spent time with Williams during the filming of a commercial, posted a tribute to the late actor to his Instagram account on Tuesday.

Warriors Remain the League’s Most Hated… Three Years Later

If your favorite team not based out of the Bay Area was title-competitive for the latter half of the 2010s, chances are their championship dreams were smashed by the proficiency of the Golden State Warriors. After setting an NBA regular-season record of 73 wins and losing a controversial 2016 NBA Finals, the Dubs sacrificed depth for star power and added arguably the greatest scoring threat in all-time in Kevin Durant.

We’re coming up on almost a month now since the news broke that Nico Mannion would be taking his talents to Italy.

On August 10 it was announced that Mannion agreed to sign with Virtus Bologna of the Italian Lega Basket Serie A and the EuroCup. The move was made as Mannion felt that rather than being a two-way player, which is the type of contract he was on with Golden State, he could better develop his game playing in Italy rather than bouncing back and forth from the NBA to the G-League. The Warriors still retain his restricted free agency rights should Mannion return to the NBA.

In 36 games seemingly in the role of Stephen Curry’s primary backup at the point guard position, Poole poured in more than 20 points nine times along with 27 double-digit scoring showings.
