Warriors to sign Hudson

The Warriors have reached an agreement with point guard Troy Hudson on a one-year deal and are expected to sign him Monday, a league source confirmed.

Hudson, 31, a 10-year veteran, will make the league minimum of $1.2 million after receiving a hefty buyout from Minnesota in the summer. He averaged 5.9 points and 2.1 assists in 34 games last season and posted career-bests of 14.2 points and 5.7 assists as the full-time starter for the Timberwolves in 2002-03.

He gives the Warriors an experienced backup for Baron Davis, who had been the lone point guard left on Golden State's roster. The Warriors bought out seldom-used Sarunas Jasikevicius last week and are set to open training camp Oct. 2 in Hawaii.
