Warriors' Lindy Waters: Back to bench Saturday
Waters is not in the Warriors' starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Rockets.
Waters will retreat to the bench Saturday as Andrew Wiggins is inserted into the starting five after missing the last two games due to a back injury. Waters started in the Warriors' 104-89 win over the Pelicans on Wednesday and finished with three points, three assists, one rebound, one block and one steal across 30 minutes.

Warriors' Lindy Waters: Struggles with first unit
Waters logged three points (1-5 FG, 1-5 3Pt), one rebound, three assists, one block and one steal over 30 minutes during Wednesday's 104-89 win over New Orleans.
The absences of Stephen Curry (ankle) and Andrew Wiggins (back) has forced coach Steve Kerr to explore the team's depth. He opted for Lindy Waters to start over Buddy Hield after a good performance off the bench in the first game against the Pelicans. The success was not replicated in the rematch, and Waters struggled for much of his 30 minutes on the floor. Waters may have avoided a trip back to the G League based on his early success, but he'll sink down the depth chart once the team is fully healthy.

Waters closed Tuesday's 124-106 win over the Pelicans with 21 points (8-13 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, four assists and one steal in 31 minutes.
Waters entered the lineup after early struggles from the frontcourt starters and responded with an excellent line.

Waters joins the Warriors after riding the bench for the Thunder for three seasons.

Warriors' Lindy Waters: Leading scorer Saturday
Waters tallied 15 points (5-7 FG, 5-7 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one block across 15 minutes during Saturday's 91-90 preseason win over the Clippers.
Waters connected on a game-high five three-point field goals Saturday, and he joined Moses Moody as the only Golden State players to reach double-digit scoring. Waters spent the first three years of his NBA career with the Thunder, but he was dealt to the Warriors in June in exchange for the No. 52 pick in the 2024 NBA Draft. He appeared in 38 regular-season games in 2023-24 and averaged 3.6 points, 1.1 rebounds and 0.6 assists over 7.4 minutes per game.

Warriors' Lindy Waters: Dealt to Golden State
The Thunder traded Waters to the Warriors on Thursday in exchange for the No. 52 pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports reports.
Waters saw his averages decrease over his first three years in the league, and he wasn't a consistent part of the Thunder's rotation last year, averaging 3.6 points and 1.1 rebounds in 7.4 minutes per game over 38 regular-season appearances. He had a more prominent role when he suited up for the G League's Oklahoma City Blue, averaging 21.6 points and 6.5 rebounds in 33.0 minutes per game over 10 regular-season outings. Waters has a $2.2 million team option for next season, and the Warriors plan to exercise it to use him as a depth option.
