The Warriors have waived forward Donta Scott, according to NBA.com’s official transaction log.
Scott was signed to an Exhibit 10 contract last week. He was officially cut on Saturday.
Scott wrapped up a five-year college career at Maryland this past spring. As a super-senior in 2023/24, he averaged 11.2 PPG, 4.7 RPG, and 1.1 APG in 33 games (30.2 MPG), with a shooting line of .407/.335/.812. He went undrafted in June, then played for the Warriors in the California Classic and Las Vegas Summer Leagues.
Under the terms of Scott’s Exhibit 10 deal, he’ll make $25K (on top of his standard G League salary) if he spends at least 60 days with Golden State’s affiliate in Santa Cruz after clearing waivers.
By waiving Scott, the Warriors now have three openings on their training camp roster.
Yuri Collins, a young C prospect and a trade of Payton and Waters (or waived for Collins) for a veteran C that blocks shots and plays defense.
They should only looking at PG’s and C’s
PG. Curry
SG. Heild
SF. Wiggins (give confidence like you should of done to Klay)
PF. Green
C . ?
Podz needs to be on the bench with kuminga and company playing high minutes (yes with Moody playing a bigger role)
He was terrible last 2 years Maryland. Too soft.
I think they have 3 spots open. There’s nothing official on Hinson.
Yeah, not sure if it was Hinson or Post who was erroneously included in the count, but there’s officially 18 players under contract now.
Isn’t the Exhibit 10 for $77.5k?
That’s the maximum Exhibit 10 bonus amount, and many players receive that max. But it can also be as low as $5K. Scott’s is worth $25K.
I see, thanks! Do you know of any resource that tracks these figures?
Don’t know off-hand of a site that does. Would imagine it’s not of significant interest to most fans since those bonuses don’t count against the cap.
