Former Warriors, Lakers big man signs one-year deal with Real Madrid
Real Madrid FC announced the team’s basketball squad has signed free agent center Damian Jones to a one-year deal earlier this week. Jones spent eight seasons in the NBA from 2016-2024, but has been unable to return to the most prestigious basketball league. Over the past two years, Jones has primarily played in China with […]
Northwest division watch: Nuggets lose Watson, get DeRozan
As the offseason settles into the quiet, I’m taking a Warriors-centric look at Northwest Division. Let’s chat about those Denver Nuggets. They let 23-year old baller Peyton Watson walk and added a 37-year-old DeMar DeRozan. Watson signed a four-year, $22 million deal with Cleveland in a sign-and-trade while Denver told itself Watson’s number was too […]
Warriors bringing former first-round pick to training camp
The Golden State Warriors only tentatively filled their final roster spots when they signed Georges Niang and Brandon Williams to contracts that were partially and non-guaranteed, respectively. That’s why their Exhibit 10 signing of Dalen Terry may be more than just training camp depth and stocking the roster of the Santa Cruz Warriors. Terry was […]
SB Nation Reacts: The Brandin Podziemski extension
Brandin Podziemski’s impending extension with the Golden State Warriors represents a critical crossroad for the franchise’s cap management. Eligible for a rookie-scale extension, the 23-year-old guard’s camp seeks a payday in the $22–$25 million range annually, driven by his starting-level production, high-IQ passing, and relentless rebounding. However, Golden State prefers a conservative $15–$18 million sweet […]
Details of Warriors deals with Williams, Niang leaves room for competition
While it seemed like the Golden State Warriors had finalized their roster when they signed Brandon Williams and Georges Niang earlier this week, the terms of the deals suggest another tweak or two could remain. Per Michael Scott of Hoopshype, neither Niang nor Williams’ one-year deals are fully guaranteed, leaving space for a dark horse […]

Former Warriors wing Jonathan Kuminga signs with Timberwolves
The Minnesota Timberwolves have agreed to a two-year, $13 million deal with free agent wing Jonathan Kuminga, according to a report by ESPN’s Shams Charania. They will use the taxpayer mid-level exception for the signing, which does mean they will likely trade Donte DiVincenzo or Josh Green or waive-and-stretch Green to create the space they […]
Warriors honoring former coach with jersey patch
Don Nelson is one of the most important figures in Golden State Warriors franchise history. That’s why the team will be honoring him with a jersey patch all next summer — even putting it above their data center patch!

Klay Thompson to Miami makes sense
It’s time to turn up the Will Smith track as former Golden State Warrior Klay Thompson is going to Miami. Three weeks ago I wrote in these pages that Miami was the landing spot outside the Bay that would make the most sense. Now it’s official. Shams Charania reported that Thompson is clearing waivers after […]
Warriors fans expect the team to at least reach Play-In Tournament
Despite all the noise and rumors, the Golden State Warriors ultimately had an extremely quiet offseason. The Dubs are heading into 2026-27 season with largely the same roster that finished 37-45 last year.

Scooby Don’t: Warriors video reveals haunted schedule
We don’t envy the social media departments for NBA teams. Not only do these underpaid peons have to edit videos, create graphics, and track players’ birthdays, anniversaries, and personal bests, but they also have to chase online trends, memorize acronyms, stockpile reactions gifs, and decide which players have “rizz” and occasionally type out the word […]

Playing with Steph Curry means you aren’t going to get a lot of holidays off.

The NBA does not traditionally have a Presidents Day extravaganza, mainly because it usually […]
Warriors reportedly shopping for a ‘Minivan’
The Golden State Warriors still have two roster spots remaining thanks to their offseason strategy of “LeBron James Or We’re Staying The Same.” One player who seems to fit what the Warriors look for an in end-of-the-bench signing is a veteran forward known as “The Minivan,” Georges Niang.

Warriors tip off new season against new-look Lakers
Just because LeBron James is eating Tastykakes and Wawa sandwiches in the City of Brotherly Love this season, that doesn’t mean the Los Angeles Lakers aren’t still the Golden State Warriors’ biggest rival. The NBA agreed, sending the Dubs down to Los Angeles to open their 2026-27 season against Luka Donic, Austin Reaves, and a […]
