The Golden State Warriors have signed, drafted, and traded for players from nearly every U.S. state and many countries around the world. From Alaska to Wyoming and Austria to Zaire, the Warriors have a strong history of seeking out talent necessary for NBA success.
Since their beginnings in the Basketball Association of America (a precursor to the NBA) when they got their start as the team representing Philadelphia before they made their move to the West Coast, the organization has consistently pursued talent from a broad range of sources.
For this installment of our series taking stock of the birthplace of every Golden State player to suit up for the franchise, let's take a look at every player from California who has played for the Warriors.
Our focus in this article is Jon Barry. An alum of Georgia Tech, he was picked up with the 21st overall selection of the 1992 NBA Draft by the Boston Celtics.
The Oakland, California native played the first 3 seasons of his pro career with the Milwaukee Bucks instead, coming to an end when he signed with the Dubs in 1995. His stay with the team lasted until he was cut in 1996.
During his time suiting up for the Warriors, Barry put up 3.8 points and 1.3 assists per game.
