Golden State general manager Larry Riley wants C.J. Watson in a Warriors uniform next season and he has turned down all offers so far for the restricted free agent. The Oakland Tribune [color= rgb(255, 0, 0)]reports the[/color] Orlando Magic [color= rgb(255, 0, 0)]offered a first-round draft pick, cash and a reserve guard, but Riley decided against the trade.[/color]
"We've had substantial interest for C.J. Watson in regards to sign-and-trades," Riley told the newspaper Monday. "We haven't had an offer that's exceeded C.J.'s value. We like C.J., and we'll be working toward bringing him back." RealGM reported Monday that the Warriors are offering Watson a three-year, $4.5M contract. "I haven't decided if I'm going to take that or sign the qualifying offer," Watson said. "I still have to decide but that is the deal on the table."
