The Golden State Warriors refused to match a two-year deal worth $5 million on Ty Jerome in 2023, and the 6’5 guard is getting the last laugh as he breaks out in Memphis. He is averaging 20.1 points, 5.4 assists, 2.6 rebounds, and 1.2 steals in 22.1 minutes per game since returning from injury. Warriors fans loved his efficiency, and he’s putting up monster numbers with a larger opportunity.
The regret is worse as the Dubs deal with an injury-ravaged roster. Since Stephen Curry went out with a knee injury, Golden State ranks 22nd in offensive rating and has won just five of their last 16 games.
