In the first real shocking news of the 2021 offseason, the Golden State Warriors released big man Alen Smailagiu0107 on Wednesday.
OK, that was unnecessarily harsh of me. I didn’t really need to choose sarcasm as my vehicle to deliver this news, but I’ve already got in the car and driven it around a bit, so no sense in stopping now.
Anyway, the Warriors waived Smailagiu0107, as we all knew they would. The 20 year old had two years left on his contract, but both years were non-guaranteed. The Warriors had to waive him this week or his contract for this season would become fully guaranteed.
