According to Shams Chanaria, Garuba's two-way contract will be transformed into a standard NBA deal until the end of the season.

As a result, Garuba will fill the last playoff spot on the Warriors roster and will be able to play, being playoff-eligible.

The former Real Madrid player found very little playing time with the Warriors this year, averaging only 2.4 minutes in the NBA across 5 contests. He scored his 2 only points in a 110-118 win against the Utah Jazz on April 8 local time.

He has had a lot more playing chances in the Santa Cruz Warriors, the GSW's G-League affiliate, where he is averaging a double-double of 12.5 points, 10.1 rebounds, and 2 assists per game.
