Both Alex Toohey and Will Richard were not allowed to play in the California Classic opener against the Lakers due to pending official draft-day trades. Toohey, a forward from Australia, and Richard, who played for Florida's National Championship team, disappointed fans hoping to see them. Also absent was Bronny James, who averaged 2.3 points per game last season. Taran Armstrong scored seven points and made six assists after a hard foul. Chris Manon contributed significantly with eight points and defensive plays.
The Warriors told the Bay Area News Group that the duo cannot play for the team until the draft-day trades that brought them to Golden State are made official on Sunday.
Among them was Vanderbilt's Chris Manon, who finished a pair of Rowe-led showtime fast breaks in the third quarter with a big dunk and a layup in the third quarter en-route to an eight-point night.
