Fast-forward to present day, and Lee finds himself as a cornerstone for Golden State and their G League affiliate, having signed a two-way contract with the team in early July. This of course after being a part of Team USA’s FIBA AmeriCup qualifying squad, as well as a late season NBA call-up courtesy of the Atlanta Hawks. “It feels good, having that security knowing where I will be for this upcoming season and trying to build off this past season and be a better person and a better player,” Lee told 2 Ways & 10 Days.
This is the pinnacle of Lee’s young career, one that may have come sooner had it not been for such setbacks, but Lee is grateful for the path he’s been set on, including all the misfortune along the way. “It’s crazy how things come full-circle. When I left here from the Atlanta call-up I didn’t know I was going to be back. I was just excited for my journey,” Lee said. “But everything happens the ways it’s suppose to. So coming back here I’m excited to play in Santa Cruz, play with Golden State and learn from all the players and continue to grow.” “I wouldn’t trade it for anything,” Lee said. “I’m 25 but I feel like I’m 35 because I’m wise beyond my years,” with a delightful grin across his face noting that he feels like he also looks like a 35-year old.
Free-agent guard Damion Lee has reached an agreement with the Golden State Warriors, league sources tell ESPN. Lee, the future brother-in-law of Warriors star Stephen Curry, will sign a two-way contract, sources say. Lee is engaged to Curry’s sister, Sydel.
Adam Johnson: CJ Williams has been named the recipient of the @nbagleague Jason Collier Sportsmanship Award, the league announced today. Damion Lee (Santa Cruz) and Naz Mitrou-Long (Salt Lake City) finished second a third respectively.
