Jonas Jerebko signs one-year deal with Warriors for veteran minimum

Free-agent forward Jonas Jerebko has signed a one-year, veteran-minimum deal with the Warriors, the team announced Thursday. News of his signing comes five days after Jerebko, 31, was waived by the Utah Jazz. After no team claimed him and guaranteed his $4.2 million salary for next season, he became a free agent Monday. Golden State, looking to add a proven shooter to the back end of its bench, snagged Jerebko for the veteran's minimum of $2.1 million. A 6-foot-10 power forward from Kinna, Sweden, he is more comfortable along the perimeter than in the post. In 74 games with the Jazz last season, Jerebko shot 46.6 percent from the field, including 41.4 percent from three-point range.
