It was reported yesterday that there was mutual interest in a reunion between the Golden State Warriors and center Andrew Bogut. According to Yahoo! Sport’s Chris Haynes, the two have already come to terms and are just waiting on a letter of clearance from the Sydney Kings.
The Golden State Warriors intend to sign center Andrew Bogut for the remainder of the season after he receives his letter of clearance from the Sydney Kings of Australia’s National Basketball League, league sources told Yahoo Sports.
The clearing process is expected to take about 48 hours, sources said.
Bogut had an excellent season while playing in Australia’s NBL, averaging a double-double on his way to winning the league’s MVP award and the DPOY award.
Bogut, of course, was a part of the Warriors first title run during the 2014-15 season, but hasn’t played in the NBA in over a year. Bogut had stints in Dallas, Cleveland and Los Angeles before heading back to Australia to play in the NBL.
The Warriors had been thinking about adding some extra frontcourt help for several months now. They were hoping that Robin Lopez would get bought out by the Chicago Bulls, but with him remaining on the team beyond the March 1 deadline, Bogut is a nice backup plan.
