Omri Casspi joined the Golden State Warriors with relatively little fanfare this offseason as he arrived on a veteran’s minimum contract. Meanwhile, Nick Young — a significantly bigger name and more popular player — was signed with the Warriors’ full mid-level exception of $5.2 million. One would’ve expected Young to have the clear upper hand […]

Despite a brilliant offseason that saw the Golden State Warriors re-sign their two most key players in Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant and two essential pieces off the bench in Andre Iguodala and Shaun Livingston, the team wasn’t able to keep the same roster as last season, re-signing only seven of their nine impending free […]

Omri Casspi’s busy summer has been an ample warmup for what’s to come, after signing a one-year, $2.1 million deal with the Golden State Warriors this season, giving them an excellent weapon off the bench to complement their already monstrous depth.

The Golden State Warriors and the front office put forward a free agency extravaganza this summer, bringing back a total of seven players and signing five additional ones to contracts this offseason, keeping president Bob Myers as busy as possible during this free agency craze.

Omri Casspi and Zaza Pachulia are set to become teammates for the Golden State Warriors next season after Casspi signed a minimum deal to join the defending champions. However, the two were on opposite sides at EuroBasket as Casspi’s Israel took on Pachulia’s Georgia in the group stage. But Casspi unintentionally gave his new Warriors […]

As if they needed any more three-point shooters, the Golden State Warriors added forward Omri Casspi to their team this summer, a tall, versatile player who can shoot the three ball.

Sacramento Kings center DeMarcus Cousins has been known for his short temper during games which has led to being penalized by the league for his behavior in the past.

Despite already having played 14 games this season, excluding the series of exhibition games last month, it is quite strange finding out that Sacramento Kings‘ wingman Omri Casspi and his head coach, Dave Joerger, have not talked for more than a month now.

Omri Casspi showed everyone last year that he is one of the league’s better shooters. He is very skilled at moving to the open spot and finding the holes in the defense.
