Warriors rookie center rebounding from surgery

Warriors rookie center rebounding from surgery "He is not allowed to dunk because they don't want him to hurt his shoulder, but we would like to get him out there as much as possible," head coach Steve Kerr said before Golden State's preseason game Friday night against the Nuggets. The 7-foot JaVale McGee, a training-camp invitee, is the front-runner to win the Warriors' 15th and final roster spot. With Jones watching from the bench, Pachulia and Varejao have totaled 17 points and 25 rebounds through four preseason games on a combined 6-for-15 shooting. With the Warriors facing back-to-back games, point guard Shaun Livingston sat out Friday.
