Andre Iguodala with the Golden State Warriors is over after the team traded him to Memphis. As part of the deal, the Grizzlies will receive Iguodala and a protected first-round draft pick in exchange for forward Julian Washburn. Warriors co-chairman and CEO Joe Lacob recognized Iguodala for his contributions to the team over the last six years and announced that his No. 9 jersey would be retired.
Lacob's statement reads:
During his time with Golden State, Iguodala appeared in 413 regular season matchups, averaging 7.3 points, 3.9 rebounds, 3.4 assists, and 1.1 steals per game. Prior to joining the Warriors, the veteran athlete played for the Philadelphia 76ers and Denver Nuggets.
