With the dust of free agency and the offseason settling, training camp is set to begin quickly at the end of September. Before training camp gets underway, the Golden State Warriors are signing a former lottery pick to the roster.
The Warriors are signing guard Jerome Robinson. The 25-year-old guard will have the chance to compete for a roster spot at training camp.
Prior to signing with the Golden State, Robinson played with the Santa Cruz Warriors in the G League. In 22 games with Santa Cruz, Robinson averaged 20.2 points on 45.5% shooting from the field with 4.1 boards and 3.8 assists in 29.9 minutes per game.
