Bertans had reportedly been planning to work out with the Golden State Warriors in hopes of landing a training camp invite.

Via Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area on September 2: "Regarding the picture Davis Bertans’ agent posted on Instagram earlier: Sources say Bertans has been invited to workout for the Warriors but no camp invite has been extended. Multiple veteran free agents have been in every week. One source called Bertans a “good name to watch”"
