NBA rumors: Warriors waiving Alfonzo McKinnie to sign Marquese Chriss

After coming off the bench in the preseason opener, Chriss started each of the last three contests. With injuries to Kevon Looney and Willie Cauley-Stein, the 22-year-old made the most of his opportunity and played very well in the Dubs' first four preseason games -- averaging 9.5 points, 8.3 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.3 blocks in just 22.6 minutes. This transaction doesn't come as much of a surprise, as Warriors forward Draymond Green and coach Steve Kerr constantly praised Chriss to the media over the last couple of weeks.
