Omri Casspi signed with the Warriors on a one-year deal for the minimum, per sources. Great fit for GSW who still can use their taxpayer MLE

The Golden State Warriors are absolutely on fire in free agency. After locking in Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant, Andre Iguodala, Shaun Livingston AND David West (not to mention landing Jordan Bell in the draft), the Dubs have added yet another shooter and capable defender to their bench.
With Omri Casspi agreeing to a one-year deal, the Dubs are adding a career 36.7 percent three-point shooter to space the floor. Though he only played 36 games last season for three different teams, that was due to an inconsistent role with the Sacramento Kings and a broken thumb ruling him out for 4-6 weeks after joining the New Orleans Pelicans in the DeMarcus Cousins trade.
As long as he can stay healthy, the rich have gotten exceedingly richer. Adding a player who shot at least 40 percent from deep in three of his last four seasons to this team is just unfair, especially on a minimum contract.
