Lajae Jones scores 11 points vs. Dallas

The 54th overall pick in June’s draft, Jones played for the Warriors’ Summer League team but faced long odds of earning a roster spot in training camp. Instead of going to training camp, he’ll play in Italy this season, with the Warriors retaining his draft rights. With the Warriors signing former Gonzaga center Graham Ike to a two-way contract, all three of those slots are filled going into camp, with Malevy Leons and L.J. Cryer occupying the other two.

The 6-foot-7 wing spent four years at four different schools, but the final one was with Florida State. He was named to the All-ACC Tournament Second Team and averaged 12.7 points, 5.7 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 1.2 steals, 1.0 blocks and 1.7 triples per game over the course of the season. Though he didn’t shoot it from deep at a high percentage last season, Jones was more than capable of getting hot, and even had a game with 10 three-pointers early on. He’ll likely fill in as a depth piece for Golden State, though there is some intriguing fantasy upside if he is able to carve out a role at some point.
