The 25-year-old from New Orleans averaged 15.4 points per game along with 6.0 rebounds and 1.0 steals with the Golden State Warriors last season.
The year prior, he put a career-best 18.7 points, 6.4 rebounds and 35.2 shooting from three with the Phoenix Suns, before getting sent to the Oklahoma City Thunder as part of the Chris Paul blockbuster andflipped to the Warriors soon after.
The six-foot-seven wing was likely made expendable in Golden State after the Warriors added Otto Porter Jr., Jonathan Kuminga and Moses Moody in the off-season.
