Louisville guard Dwayne Sutton, who went undrafted last week, has reportedly agreed to sign with the Golden State Warriors, according to Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports.

Sutton was an All-ACC Honorable Mention selection after averaging 9.1 points, 8.2 rebounds and 1.7 assists in 31 games played last season as a senior. He shot 50.5% from the field and 35.4% from 3-point range on 2.6 attempts per game.

The 6-foot-5 guard told Rookie Wire this month that his goal was to land on an NBA roster with a team that will best suit his future development and highlight his skill set on the court.

“I want to be in a situation where I can make myself comfortable playing my game,” Sutton said. “I feel like I can guard a few different positions, I feel like I can get to the rim and make plays above the room and knock down the outside shot and I feel like whatever team gives me the opportunity to do that I will.”

Sutton will likely sign a non-guaranteed contract and spend time next season in the NBA G League with the Santa Cruz Warriors. The organization has a strong development program and that will certainly benefit Sutton throughout the year.
