The Golden State Warriors have their core ready to return and aren’t exactly finished filling out their roster. Last season, they were a great on both ends of the floor. Next season, the Warriors will aim to repeat behind great shooting team and defense. As of now, they are stockpiling more shooting assets.
By adding Ian Clark and Jarell Eddie, the Warriors will boast a team who’s ready to catch fire at any moment. According to Shams Charania of Real GM, the Warriors added Eddie to compete for a spot on the roster:
The Golden State Warriors have reached agreement on deal w/ free agent sharpshooter Jarell Eddie, sources tell RealGM. Camp battle for spot.

According to Monte Pool of CSN Bay Area, the contract should be a non-guaranteed and won’t be signed until next month:
Eddie has not yet signed an official pact – almost certainly non-guaranteed – and might not be signed until next month, CSN Bay Area has confirmed.
As of now, the Warriors have 13 guaranteed contracts and James McAdoo’s partial guarantee. With that, Chris Babb, Ian Clark, and Jarell Eddie will probably have to compete for the last roster spot.
Eddie is a 23 year old 6-foot-7 shooter who hasn’t seen regular season action. He was signed to a 10-day contract with the Atlanta Hawks. In the D-League, he played for the Austin Spurs and drained 43 percent of his trey balls. His greatest achievement at the level, defeating Seth Curry in the D-League Three Point Contest.
