Warriors Assign First-round Pick Damian Jones to Santa Cruz

The Golden State Warriors assigned center Damian Jones to the Santa Cruz Warriors of the NBA Development League, the team announced on Monday.         

Jones, who was selected 30th overall by the Warriors in the 2016 NBA Draft, underwent surgery on June 14 to repair a torn right pectoral muscle and has not appeared in a game with Golden State this season.

The 7’0” center appeared in 99 games (95 starts) over three seasons at Vanderbilt, averaging 13.3 points, 6.4 rebounds and 1.69 blocks in 27.1 minutes.

Jones will begin practicing with the Warriors’ D-League affiliate this week.
