LJ Cryer News, Rumors, Updates - Golden State Warriors

Spins up 20 points in blowout loss Cryer logged 20 points (7-17 FG, 6-11 3Pt), two rebounds, six assists and one steal over 24 minutes during Friday's 123-85 loss to the Spurs.

Impact Cryer was the one bright spot for Golden State, leading the team with 20 points and hitting six threes off the bench. With Stephen Curry (oblique) expected to miss at least two weeks, the Warriors need extra support, and Cryer made a strong case Friday, even if most of it came after the game was decided. He should get a bigger role Monday at New Orleans.

Reaches double figures in extended run Cryer ended with 10 points (4-9 FG, 2-6 3Pt) and three assists in 20 minutes during Monday's 138-87 victory over the Pelicans.

Impact Cryer picked up meaningful minutes in a blowout win due to Will Richard (thumb) and Gary Payton (knee) being unavailable, and he knocked down a pair of triples. Much of his playing time came in garbage time. He's unlikely to hold fantasy value outside of deep leagues once Golden State's backcourt gets healthy.

Sees garbage-time action Cryer posted six points (2-3 FG, 2-2 3Pt) and two assists across three minutes during Monday's 134-114 victory over Denver.

Impact Cryer saw a bit of garbage-time run in this blowout win. With Golden State's backcourt fully healthy, Cryer lacks a clear path to playing time in the early going.

Fares well in SL victory Cryer recorded 17 points (6-13 FG, 5-12 3Pt), four rebounds, five assists and two steals in 27 minutes during Thursday's 87-77 Summer League win over the Knicks.

Impact Cryer showcased his shooting ability early and often in this one by scoring 15 of his 17 points from downtown. He paced the Warriors in scoring, though he also committed a team-high four turnovers. Overall, this was another strong showing out of the second-year guard, who will enter training camp looking to earn more opportunities in 2026-27.

Paces Golden State in SL win Cryer contributed 25 points (8-14 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and four assists across 27 minutes in Thursday's 101-90 Summer League win over the Mavericks.

Impact Cryer torched the nets in the double-digit victory, leading his team in scoring behind a game-high five triples. After averaging 8.2 points, 1.6 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 16.2 minutes per contest across 18 regular-season appearances at the NBA level in 2025-26, the young guard will look to continue his strong Summer League play in hopes of earning more opportunities during the 2026-27 campaign.

Impact Cryer suffered a sprained right ankle in April, but it appears he's back to full strength. The 24-year-old is coming off a relatively quiet 2025-26 campaign, where he averaged 8.2 points, 1.6 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 0.2 steals over 16.2 minutes in 18 regular-season appearances. Cryer is currently signed to a two-way contract with the Warriors, though he is expected to spend most of the 2026-27 season in the G League.

Diagnosed with sprained ankle Cryer (ankle) will be re-evaluated in one week after an MRI confirmed a right-ankle sprain.

Impact Cryer suffered the ankle injury late in Thursday's 119-103 loss to the Lakers. With the latest update, he will miss the rest of the regular season as well as the Play-In Tournament. The 24-year-old played well enough in his 18 appearances, averaging 8.2 points, 1.6 rebounds, 10.0 assists and 0.2 steals across 16.2 minutes. However, with Stephen Curry (knee) back in the equation, Cryer could have a tough time finding minutes if he returns before the Warriors are eliminated from the postseason.

Out with ankle sprain Cryer (ankle) is out for Friday's game against the Kings.

Impact Cryer left Thursday's loss to the Lakers in the fourth quarter due to a sprained right ankle, and he's now out for the second half of this back-to-back set. More playing time is open to Pat Spencer, Gary Payton and De'Anthony Melton on Friday.

Impact Cryer stepped on an opposing player's foot and appeared to roll his ankle. The rookie was down for a considerable amount of time and needed help getting back to the locker room, though he was later spotted back on the bench. The severity of the injury is unclear, and he faces a short turnaround if he hopes to suit up Friday against Sacramento. He can be considered highly questionable for Friday's contest until the Warriors provide an update on his status.

Impact Cryer appeared to step on an opposing player's foot, which resulted in a twisted ankle. He wasn't able to put any weight on the foot after the play and needed assistance heading down the tunnel. However, Cryer was spotted back on the bench shortly after, per Nick Friedell of The Athletic, indicating that the injury may not be as serious as it initially looked.
