Fantasy Impact
Chriss fractured his right ankle in practice three months ago after playing in just two games for the Warriors this season. His trade to San Antonio was conducted with cash assets, which allows the Warriors to avoid the league luxury tax when trading an injured player. The Spurs add depth for the 2021-22 season, as Chriss averaged 9.3 points and 6.2 rebounds across 59 games for the Warriors in 2019.
