Both players will likely be waived before the 2024-25 NBA season and join the Santa Cruz Warriors.

The Warriors finished last season as the tenth seed in the Western Conference with a 46-36 record.

They lost to the Sacramento Kings in the play-in tournament, so they missed the NBA playoffs for the third time in five years.
