Donte DiVincenzo posts message to Warriors fans after signing Knicks contract – NBC Sports Bay Area & California

Donte DiVincenzo offered a call out to Warriors fans in an Instagram post Thursday night.

“From the bottom of my heart, thank you!” DiVincenzo Books.

DiVincenzo arrived in the Bay Area last summer after signing a two-year, $9.3 million deal.

In 72 games with the Warriors, the 26-year-old winger has averaged 9.4 points, 4.5 rebounds and 3.5 assists in 26.3 minutes per contest. He successfully filled in as a starter while Andrew Wiggins was absent for nearly two months due to personal reasons, recording 10.3 points on 36.8 percent shooting from 3-point range over the Warriors’ last 25 regular season games.

DiVincenzo also appeared in 13 playoff games for the Warriors before their season was ended by the Los Angeles Lakers in the Western Conference semifinals.

His future with Golden State was in jeopardy as soon as that last bell sounded. DiVincenzo’s two-year deal included a player option for the 2023-24 season, which he turned down in pursuit of a larger contract.

DiVincenzo signed a four-year, $50 million contract with the New York Knicks in free agency, joining former Villanova teammates Josh Hart and Galen Bronson in the Big Apple.
