Warriors sign Kavion Pippen, Scottie’s nephew, to bolster frontcourt depth

With a rash of frontcourt injuries, the Golden State Warriors are adding a familiar name to supply depth down low: Kavion Pippen. An undrafted rookie out of Southern Illinois, Pippen is the nephew of Hall of Famer Scottie Pippen. Pippen, a 6-foot-10 center, played two seasons at Three Rivers (Mo.) Community College before transferring to Southern Illinois for his final two seasons of eligibility.
