The Golden State Warriors appear to have gained clarity on their two-way roster following Summer League, according to NBC Sports Bay Area’s Dalton Johnson.

Johnson believes guard LJ Cryer and forward Malevy Leons did enough during Summer League to secure two of the team’s three two-way contracts.

Cryer also impressed enough to potentially challenge for a place on Golden State’s standard 15-man roster.

Leons still has room to develop as a perimeter shooter, but his high-energy play, defensive effort and attention to detail could help him earn opportunities with the NBA team.

The final two-way spot remains open, with second-round pick LaJae Jones, center Graham Ike and guard Chance McMillian viewed as leading candidates.

Johnson also noted that center Lachlan Olbrich, a 2025 second-round selection who played for the Chicago Bulls, performed well enough in Las Vegas to put himself in the conversation for the remaining opening.
