Warriors Plan to Sign Charles Bassey for Frontcourt Help

The reported deal adds low-cost size for a shorthanded frontcourt.

Overview

  • HoopsHype reporter Michael Scotto said the Warriors plan to add center Charles Bassey to bolster depth, citing league sources.
  • The move comes after Omer Yurtseven’s second 10-day contract expired, leaving Golden State thin at the five.
  • Bassey became a free agent when his second 10-day with Boston ended, logging five brief games there and posting G League averages of 20.5 points, 12.5 rebounds and 2.1 blocks.
  • Al Horford has missed 11 games with a calf strain, with team updates saying he has begun light on-court work and is making progress.
  • Stephen Curry has missed 27 games and says he will return once medically cleared, a lift the Warriors hope to have before the play-in stretch.
