LJ Cryer Steps Up in Warriors' Bench Rotation for Injured Williams

Golden State Warriors two-way guard LJ Cryer is set for an expanded bench role following an injury to backup point guard Brandon Williams. Cryer capitalized on his increased opportunity Monday against New Orleans, scoring 10 points in 20 minutes. Known for his perimeter shooting—taking 16 of his 25 field goal attempts from 3-point range—Cryer aims to bring a unique scoring dynamic as Golden State begins a five-game road trip in Houston.
