The Warriors called up CJ "Quiet Storm" Watson from Rio Grande Valley Vipers. Hopefully, he's another Kelenna Azubuike-like gem in point guard form. The Warriors signed him to a 10-day contract, but if he's anything like Kaz in terms of undiscovered talent, then that Warriors have found themselves a suitable, long-term backup to Baron Davis.
Watson put up nice numbers in his time in the D-League this season:
In 16 games with the Vipers this season, Watson averaged 26.4 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 5.3 assists per game. In his last game against the Austin Toros, the point guard finished with 42 points, 8 rebounds and 8 assists in a closely contested double overtime loss.Marcus Thompson says that Watson won't play tonight against the Spurs, but he'll be in town.
