Initial reports had indicated the deal was all but done, but this morning marked the official confirmation as the point guard boarded a flight to New York to complete the final stages of the contract signing.

The suspension had cast doubts on the guard’s future with Golden State, and insiders say tension between the front office and the player’s camp may have accelerated the departure.
