While Curry is away for his Team USA duties, the Warriors’ front office […]

A lack of depth is what most Golden State Warriors fans are worried about after Klay Thompson’s departure. It is not often that Stephen Curry needs to step out of the game to manage his fatigue but he still needs a secondary guard to knock down shots when needed. Thankfully, Steve Kerr has developed Brandin […]

While many of the Golden State Warriors’ recent picks in the NBA Draft have come under fire — Jordan Poole, James Wiseman, Moses Moody and Patrick Baldwin Jr., just to name a few — one that the Dubs front office nailed without even the tiniest bit of doubt was Brandin Podziemski. Billed as a promising […]

The Golden State Warriors just got much younger, and Brandin Podziemski may be a centerpiece of their new era sooner rather than later. With Chris Paul and Klay Thompson departing the Bay Area, the team’s young core will have to step up and support Steph Curry. Podziemski sounded off on Paul’s move to the San […]

With the NBA offseason finally here and the 2024 NBA Draft right around the corner, this is a busy time for athletes as they take some time to rest, make decisions about their future, and expand their personal brands off the court.

There are a lot of signs that point to the end of the Golden State Warriors dynasty.

Another is the significant drop in Klay Thompson’s production which led to his benching in favor […]

Since winning the 2022 NBA Finals, the Golden State Warriors have been very mediocre, given the expectations they have set for themselves.

Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, and […]

SAN FRANCISCO — Brandin Podziemski hasn’t become a fixture with the Golden State Warriors due to his scoring exploits.

Entering Friday’s […]

Klay Thompson will be back at his most familiar spot in the Golden State Warriors’ lineup.

The 2023-24 season hasn’t gone as smoothly as the Golden State Warriors had envisioned.

The Golden State Warriors’ 2023-24 season has been anything but smooth, but one of the brightest points has been the emergence of rookie guard Brandin Podziemski.

It took a while for Brandin Podziemski, the 19th overall pick of the 2023 NBA Draft, to cement his place in the Golden State Warriors rotation. Podziemski, who was recently elevated into the starting lineup, has been a godsend for a Warriors team in need of more playmaking, shooting, and all-around skill. But it’s the […]

Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors have been rolling of late after what was a horrific start to the 2023-24 NBA season.

No one was hanging a banner in the Frost Bank Center ahead of the 2023-24 campaign, but the arrival of Victor Wembanyama was expected to spark immediate change for the San Antonio Spurs. Instead, they might actually finish with a worse record than they did the previous year. If that possibility was presented to fans […]

Remember Klay Thompson’s somber tone and sad smile as he recently discussed the realities of entering a different stage of his career?

The Golden State Warriors took care of business on Friday night, beginning a critical road trip by dispatching of the severely undermanned Memphis Grizzlies in convincing 121-101 fashion.

SAN FRANCISCO — A broken left hand means there’s a real chance Chris Paul has already played his last game with the Golden State Warriors.
