Staten was undrafted but played in the Las Vegas Summer League with the Sacramento Kings.

During his three year career in Morgantown, Staten eclipsed 1,200 points and 400 assists while improving into one of the best point guards in college basketball.

Staten's ability to get to the rim is certainly an NBA skill, but his lack of a consistent outside shot led to him going undrafted. It's going to be an uphill climb to make the roster, but this will still be good experience for him to practice with the best basketball team in the world.

Golden State currently has 13 players with guaranteed salaries and are allowed to carry 15 to begin the season. Staten will be battling for one of those final two spots.
