Dan Dickau waived

The Warriors waived point guard Dan Dickau on Sunday, clearing the way for Oakland-born, Vallejo-raised DeMarcus Nelson to make the team. Nelson was invited to training camp on a non-guaranteed contract but quickly became a favorite of coach Don Nelson's with his gritty defense.

Dickau played in just two of the Warriors' four exhibition games and averaged 5 points, 2.5 rebounds and 2 steals in 12 minutes.
