Antonius Cleveland is headed to Dallas, so let’s take a look at his career with the Golden State Warriors G-League affiliate, the Santa Cruz Warriors.
On today’s edition of TimeOut, I will take a look back at Antonius Cleveland’s tenure with the Santa Cruz Warriors as he’ll be heading over to the Dallas to join the Mavericks on a two-way contract.
Cleveland’s time with the Warriors began in 2017 when he signed a training camp deal.
Although he was waived by the Golden State Warriors, he spent the 2017-2018 season with the Santa Cruz Warriors. During the 2017-2018 season he shot 58.8% from the field making 5-of-9 attempts.
Although he hardly shot from three-point range, he shot 55% from Curry range during the season. Cleveland was the team’s most efficient from two-point range, averaging 60% from that area.
In his first stint with the Warriors, he was also very efficient from the free-throw line, shooting 89.5% from that area. Cleveland is a great shooter, but he also makes his presence known even when he was not shooting.
He grabbed 3.7 rebounds, 1.5 steals and 0.3 blocks per game. Standing 6-foot-6, Cleveland is solid small forward option.
Sea Dub fans got another chance to see Cleveland in action as he joined the team once more in the 2018-2019 season where he averaged 9.5 points on three of seven shooting. Similarly to the 2017-2018 season, Cleveland shot very little from three point range averaging 33.3% for the season.
Despite a drop in his free-throw percentage, he still managed to have a solid season from the free throw line consistently making 3-of-4. During the playoffs, Cleveland did a little bit of everything for the Warriors, averaging nineteen points, five rebounds, four steals and three blocks in thirty-four minutes of playing time.
