"Kirk Lacob, the 23-year-old son of Warriors co-owner Joe Lacob, was named general manager of the team's NBA Development League affiliate in Bismarck, N.D., on Wednesday.

Lacob, who was the Warriors' director of basketball operations last season, impressed Golden State's seasoned employees during his first year with the team. He was said to bring basketball and statistical smarts with out-of-the-box thinking to the Warriors' front office.

The Dakota Wizards will hold an open tryout from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Oct. 15 at Hayward's Dream Courts (22290 Hathaway Ave.). The participation fee is $125 if paid by Sept. 23. It's $150 after that."
