The Warriors signed a free agent contract Tyler Burton to the Annex 10 deal, Kate Smith reports for Spotrac (via Twitter).
Golden State previously acquired the rights to Burton in a G League trade between the Santa Cruz Warriors and Memphis Hustle that sent Yuri Collins in Memphis.
Burton, 26, a 6’7″ forward, played in 12 games for the Grizzlies last season as a rookie. He averaged 10.8 points, 4.2 rebounds and 0.9 steals per game in 25.6 minutes per game, though he struggled with efficiency, shooting .375/.333/.852.
The deal comes after the Warriors rejection security guard Miles Kelly. If Burton is waived before the start of the season, he will be eligible to earn a bonus of up to $91,000 on top of his base salary if he spends at least 60 days with the Santa Cruz Warriors.
