Report: Warriors sign former UNC PF McAdoo to 10-day contract
The Golden State Warriors signed undrafted North Carolina product James Michael McAdoo to a 10-day contract Sunday, according to Yahoo Sports' Marc Spears.
McAdoo reportedly chose the Warriors' offer over one from the Memphis Grizzlies.
"(McAdoo) ultimately chose Golden State because of their initial investment in his development and career," his agent Jim Tanner said.

The Warriors originally signed McAdoo before training camp, giving him a $35,000 guarantee. The team then waived him before the start of the regular season and assigned him to the D-League's Santa Cruz Warriors.
McAdoo, who averaged 11.4 points, 5.9 rebounds, 1.2 steals and one assist over three years at UNC, was once considered a potential top-five pick.
The Warriors are already set at the power forward position, with Draymond Green, David Lee, Marreese Speights and Harrison Barnes all capable of logging minutes at the four, so it's unlikely McAdoo will see much, if any, floor time.
