Justin Williams and Dion Dowell cut

Geoff Leper of the decent 48minutes.net site has reported that Justin Williams and Dion Dowell were cut from the Warriors training camp roster

Dion Dowell



I don't think Dowell's cut was unexpected. There were a ton of swingman ahead of him in the roster but hopefully he goes to find success elsewhere. Coming out of college he was renowned for his athletiscm and a decent offensive game so here's hoping he continues that if he gets another invite to a NBA team. His Summer League stats hold up well so I'm sure another NBA team gives him a shot


Justin Williams

Compared to Rob Kurtz, DeMarcus Nelson and Dan Dickau all battling to make the final roster spot I thought Justin Williams might have a shot but alas it wasn't to be. Rumours of him going to Maccabi look to be true but at least he has playing security that he wouldn't have had with the Warriors. He deserved having a shot at being one of the Warriors backup Centres but instead according to this report he's going to Israel
