Warriors activate two-way guard Ty Jerome before Tuesday’s game vs. Suns

With Donte DiVincenzo dealing with a hamstring injury, the Warriors are activating two-way guard Ty Jerome before Tuesday’s contest against the Suns.

During the Golden State Warriors’ win over the Sacramento Kings in San Francisco on Sunday, Donte DiVincenzo suffered a hamstring injury that will hold him out for the next week before he’s re-evaluated.

Prior to suffering his injury, DiVincenzo played in all three of Golden State’s opening games, averaging 14 minutes off the bench per game. With DiVincenzo out and rookies Patrick Baldwin Jr. and Ryan Rollins assigned to the G League, the Warriors are activating one of their two-way players.

Ty Jerome will travel with the team to Phoenix and be active for Golden State’s contest against his former team on Tuesday night in the desert.

After waiving Quinndary Weatherspoon and Lester Quinones at the end of the preseason, the Warriors signed Jerome, along with Anthony Lamb to two-way contracts. 

After being drafted by the Suns in the 2019 NBA draft, Jerome has had stops in Phoenix and Oklahoma City before joining the Warriors during training camp in the 2022 offseason. 

Jerome and the Warriors will play their first road game of the 2022-23 season on Tuesday at 7 p.m. PT against the Suns in Phoenix on Tuesday evening.
