According to recent reports from the organization, the 30-year-old will play for the NBA G League’s Mexico City Capitanes. After finishing the previous season with the Utah Jazz, Toscano-Anderson had originally hoped to continue his NBA career.
Should Juan Toscano-Anderson have attended training camp with the Golden State Warriors as they competed for the 14th roster spot?
In anticipation of being included on the Warriors’ 21-man training camp roster, Toscano-Anderson performed a number of workouts in the Warriors’ facilities over the summer.
Golden State, however, preferred experienced forward Rudy Gary, wing R Kendric Davis, and Javan odney McGruder over the young route, going with players like Johnson and Donovan Williams.
Toscano-Anderson, an Oakland native, entered the NBA in the 2019–20 season with the Warriors after going undrafted in 2015. The 6’6″ forward played in 73 regular-season contests for Golden State in their successful 2021–22 campaign.
Toscano-Anderson departed the Warriors for the Los Angeles Lakers in the winter of last year, but he didn’t have much of an effect there before being sent to the Jazz in a three-team deal involving Russell Westbrook in
Last season, “JTA” appeared in 52 games overall, playing 13.5 minutes per game while averaging 3.0 points, 2.4 rebounds, and 1.3 assists. Over the past few of seasons, his declining three-point shooting has been an issue, resulting in his failure to land another NBA deal.
Toscano-Anderson will now attempt to return to the NBA via the G League, but regardless of his success, Warriors supporters will always remember him as a champion who permanently changed the course of the team.
