Grizzlies sign former Warrior Casspi

-

The Memphis Grizzlies on Wednesday signed their second free agent this offseason in Omri Casspi.

Casspi, 30, played 53 games with the Warriors last season and averaged 5.7 points and 3.8 rebounds. He shot 58 percent from the floor and 45.5 percent outside the arc. However, he was left off Golden State’s playoff roster.

The 6-foot-9 forward has started 145 of 552 games in his career with Sacramento, Cleveland, Houston, New Orleans, Minnesota and Golden State. Sacramento drafted the native of Holon, Israel, at No. 23 overall in 2009. He became the first Israel-born player to play in an NBA regular-season game Oct. 28, 2009.

The Grizzlies also signed former San Antonio forward Kyle Anderson to a four-year deal announced Monday. Summer League: Dwayne Bacon scored 19 points and Willy Hernangome­z had 18 points and 13 rebounds to help the Hornets (3-1) top the Warriors 87-67 in Las Vegas.

Miles Bridges, the No. 12 overall selection, added 17 points and eight boards for Charlotte.

Marcus Derrickson had 20 points on 8-for-15 shooting and Rion Brown scored 13, going 6-for-12, for the Warriors.

The Warriors’ final Summer League game is a consolatio­n game against Sacramento on Friday.

Cal alum Ivan Rabb had 17 points on 8-for-12 shooting, with eight rebounds, seven of them offensive, as Memphis fell 99-80 to the Kings.
