Brandon Rush exercised his player option for the 2013/14 season.

A no-brainer for Rush as he's coming off of ACL surgery. He's going to provide a great option off the bench for the Warriors behind Harrison Barnes, and he'll be playing next season to prove that he's healthy after a lost year due to injury.

Warriors GM Bob Myers expects Brandon Rush (torn ACL) to pick up his player option for next year.

Rush would have a hard time earning more than a minimum contract with incentives given that he's coming off of an ACL tear that kept him out for the season, so we'd guess Rush will return to the Warriors as well.

Brandon Rush (left knee) expects to begin running and light jumping in approximately three weeks.

He has been off crutches for nearly a month and it sounds as though his rehab is progressing well enough that he'll be ready to go for training camp. Rush has a $4 million player option for next season.

Brandon Rush underwent successful surgery to repair his torn ACL.

Rush is out for the season and will have a lengthy rehab process ahead to return for next year.

Brandon Rush will have ACL surgery in New York on Wednesday.

Rush hopes to return for the start of the 2013-14 season, but we should have a more precise timetable after the surgery. He blew out the knee in Novemeber, but delayed surgery long enough for his damanged MCL to heal.

Brandon Rush returned to action on Wednesday December 19.

Brandon Rush (torn ACL, MCL) paid a visit to his Warriors teammates after they beat the Nets in Brooklyn.

Rush was in New York to rehab ahead of surgery to repair the ACL in his left knee. He's hoping to be ready in time for the start of the 2013-14 season.

Brandon Rush not only tore the ACL in his left knee, but the MCL as well.

He'll have to wait for the MCL injury to heal before having ACL surgery, which means December is the earliest that he'll go under the knife. Either way, his season is over and he'll fight to be ready to go next October.

Brandon Rush was diagnosed with a torn ACL to his left knee and is expected to miss the rest of the season.

It's a devastating blow to Rush and the Warriors. Rush has been an important part of Golden State's rotation and they lack depth at the wing positions. Harrison Barnes is expected to see his minutes extended and his 3-point prowess puts him right at the top of the list for players to add in all leagues. Barnes played just six minutes of the first half, then followed it up with 17 minutes in the second half. Jarrett Jack could also get more minutes as the Warriors may utilize a three-guard lineup, but Klay Thompson guarding NBA small forwards sounds like a recipe for disaster.

In an interview with Ric Bucher, Warriors assistant coach Pete Myers said the team will use committee approach should Brandon Rush miss time.

"We can slide Jack into the backcourt, and also extend Barnes minutes," Myers said. While Barnes is the best looking add at this time, we wouldn't bend over backwards to grab him. He did start the second half, though.
