Warriors star Stephen Curry revealed his true feelings before a […]

The season got off to a rough start for Klay Thompson. It looked like he was not acclimated with the Golden State Warriors schemes which impacted the record of the Stephen Curry-led squad. Steve Kerr noticed this and made a move that flipped a switch inside the elite sharpshooter. It all worked out as they […]

Remember Klay Thompson’s somber tone and sad smile as he recently discussed the realities of entering a different stage of his career? So much for that viral video contributing to his potential downfall with the Golden State Warriors. Less than two weeks later, Thompson seems more comfortable with the current state of his game than […]

Although the Golden State Warriors are in the midst of their best stretch of the season, they still have key questions to answer. There might be none bigger, though, than the one concerning the productivity of Klay Thompson. Can he revert to being a reliable perimeter threat for the postseason push? It will be a […]

Steve Kerr was not part of just one dynasty. He paved the way for the success of the Stephen Curry-led Golden State Warriors through the learnings he got while being with the Chicago Bulls and San Antonio Spurs. Now, he is reaping the rewards of his hard work with the Stephen Curyy-led squad. The 58-year-old […]

The Golden State Warriors and star Stephen Curry suffered a frustrating loss Wednesday night as they were defeated by their in-state foe in the Los Angeles Clippers. They were winning for most of the contest, even leading by 15 points at one point, but the Clippers would close the gap and get the victory off […]

The Golden State Warriors, for much of their Wednesday night contest against the Los Angeles Clippers, looked like the team that had the upper hand. The Clippers did not have the services of Kawhi Leonard, and they weren’t shooting well enough to compensate for the absence of their best player. However, in the fourth quarter, […]

The ultimate ‘Splash Brother’ Stephen Curry had NBA fans feeling shook on Wednesday night as he unleashed one of the most impossible shots you will ever see on a night when the Warriors tangled with the Los Angeles Clippers. The Warriors have been quietly gathering momentum for a playoff run and Chris Paul could be […]

The head coach is in Belgrade, Serbia to attend the funeral of assistant coach Dejan Milojevic, according to Kendra Andrews of ESPN. Warriors general manager Mike Dunleavy Jr., […]

The Golden State Warriors now have an even .500 record. It was an all-around slugfest between Kevin Durant’s Phoenix Suns and the Stephen Curry-led squad, but the Bay Area worked its magic. Steve Kerr drew up the perfect play to get his star shooter in the perfect position. The rest was then history. Curry gave […]

SAN FRANCISCO — The Golden State Warriors are defending better, playing faster and reaping the all-court benefits of deploying more athletic lineups. Adding even more encouragement for the Dubs as those developments drive their midseason turnaround? Golden State has developed its new identity with Gary Payton II watching from the sidelines, out since early January […]

Former NBA big man Kendrick Perkins didn’t hold back in sharing his rather harsh thoughts on Steve Kerr and the Golden State Warriors amid their recent hot streak. The Warriors are on a three-game winning streak and seem to be finding their groove, a situation that likely convinced the Dubs to stay relatively silent during […]

The trade deadline came and went with the Golden State Warriors barely lifting a finger. Sending Cory Joseph and $5.8 million to the Indiana Pacers in exchange for a second-round pick lowered Joe Lacob’s tax bill and opened up a roster spot, but will hardly help the Dubs on their quest to re-emerge as contenders […]

The Indiana Pacers (29-23) and Golden State Warriors (23-25) enter their Tuesday matchup on two different trajectories with a little over two months left in the regular season. Tyrese Haliburton is looking to lead a young group into the NBA playoffs and distinctly announce himself as one of the future flag bearers of the sport. […]

The Golden State Warriors managed a season-low 15 first quarter points against the shorthanded Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday night. Stephen Curry had a potential four-point play overturned to an offensive foul after video review, failing to score until hitting a free throw with 2:51 left in the first half. He finished the game with nine […]

The Golden State Warriors are steadily climbing their way back up to a .500 record. Their challenge when they faced the Philadelphia 76ers was to contain both Tobias Harris and Tyrese Maxey from having scoring outbursts. Steve Kerr was successful in scheming these players out of the game. It was a tough scoring night for […]

In the aftermath of the Golden State Warriors’ 109-98 win over the Brooklyn Nets on Monday night, Klay Thompson’s postgame reaction to being benched stole headlines. Thompson had endured a rough 2023-24 season to that point, and the Warriors’ decision to utilize rookie forward Gui Santos over him during crunch time plunged the 34-year old […]

The window has closed for the Golden State Warriors to make the type of blockbuster move at the trade deadline that once seemed necessary to save their season. OG Anunoby and Pascal Siakam are already ensconced with the New York Knicks and Indiana Pacers. The Utah Jazz haven’t made Lauri Markkanen available barring the king’s […]

The Golden State Warriors are a far cry from the four-time championship winning team of days past. Coach Steve Kerr and General Manager Mike Dunleavy Jr. have a bevy of difficult decisions to make with hopes of transforming the team back into contenders. Recently, Draymond Green landed on the Warriors’ injury report with a concerning […]

For the past 13 years or so, Klay Thompson has helped define an era of Golden State Warriors basketball. But alas, everyone (except LeBron James, perhaps) succumbs to Father Time. Thompson has endured one of the worst seasons of his Hall of Fame career, and now, he continues to dig new depths after the Warriors […]

The second-highest scoring game of Stephen Curry’s legendary career wasn’t enough to lift his team to a road win over the in-flux Atlanta Hawks. Disappointing as Saturday’s loss was, you can’t exactly find too much fault with the Golden State Warriors. Once the extra period tipped off, the sorely undermanned Dubs just didn’t have anything […]

Klay Thompson has been a ‘closer’ for the Golden State Warriors for many years in pursuit of four NBA championships under Coach Steve Kerr. Now Thompson is being relegated to the bench in favor of a rookie who has surpassed him in the clutch moments. As the Warriors’ season continues to unfold, fans await the […]

Remember widespread recent calls for the Golden State Warriors to add a proven secondary scorer and creator? All signs point to the Dubs largely standing pat at the trade deadline, content to play out a tumultuous 2023-24 season with the personnel status quo behind Stephen Curry. A sobering appraisal of the Warriors’ standing in a […]

Jonathan Kuminga’s stellar showing continues. Against the Memphis Grizzlies on Friday, the forward had 29 points in 37 minutes of play, leading the Golden State Warriors to the win. Following the game, head coach Steve Kerr had nothing but positive comments to say about the 21-year-old. “This last month, I think he’s really broken through […]

The 2024 NBA trade deadline is just right around the corner and there is much speculation as to what the Golden State Warriors will do amid their disappointing season so far. Previous reports indicated that everyone not named Stephen Curry could be on the table for the Warriors, with struggling forward Andrew Wiggins identified as […]

The Golden State Warriors defeated Joel Embiid and the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday, recapturing some of the team’s magic from its glory days. Recently Coach Steve Kerr broke the silence on Andrew Wiggins trade rumors prior to the deadline. He also shot down trade rumors about some of the Warriors’ most popular players. Golden State […]

Perhaps no other Golden State Warrior has been more disappointing this 2023-24 NBA season than Andrew Wiggins, who is in the midst of the worst campaign of his career so far. As a result, Wiggins has been engulfed in trade rumors over the past month and a half as the Warriors navigate through what has […]

What will the Golden State Warriors do at the NBA trade deadline, given all of their struggles this season? Everyone seems to be asking this question pertaining to Stephen Curry and the Warriors, who currently find themselves at 20-24 on the season. Andrew Wiggins, Chris Paul, Gary Payton II, and others have heard their names […]

There’s a chance the Golden State Warriors look a bit different once the trade deadline finally comes and goes. Leading up to February 8th, though, the Dubs are finally set to give an extended look to the lineup that’s broadly considered their best. Before Tuesday’s matchup with the Philadelphia 76ers, Steve Kerr told reporters that […]

Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green was on his self-titled show and talked about the disappointment he felt when it was announced he wouldn’t be part of Team USA for this summer’s Paris Olympics.

The Golden State Warriors lost another heartbreaker on Saturday night, falling 145-144 to the Los Angeles Lakers in an instant double-overtime classic.

[…]

In a pivotal moment for the Golden State Warriors, head coach Steve Kerr has signaled the readiness of Draymond Green to rejoin the starting lineup. Green, a linchpin for the Warriors with his defensive prowess and leadership on the court, has been absent from the starting five since being reinstated from a suspension that drew […]

The Golden State Warriors community is still mourning the abrupt passing of assistant coach Dejan Milojevic, making it understandably difficult to focus on the basketball product and other questions concerning the future of this team. Most of those matters will be categorically addressed this offseason, though. The future of head coach Steve Kerr ranks near […]

SAN FRANCISCO — Jonathan Kuminga caught the ball just past halfcourt with a clear lane to the rim as the Sacramento Kings frantically set their defense. He’d lived in the paint all night long, proving too quick, strong and crafty for the Kings to stop when he put the ball on the deck with a […]

SAN FRANCISCO — Jonathan Kuminga is playing the best basketball of his young career. The Golden State Warriors’ electric, high-flying forward is averaging 24.3 points and seven rebounds over his last four games, with scorching shooting marks of 66.1% overall, 58.3% from beyond the arc and 80.0% at the free throw line. He’s made his […]

The last several days have been an extremely emotional stretch for Steve Kerr and the Golden State Warriors. On Wednesday night, the team finally returned to action for the first time since the tragic death of assistant head coach Dejan Milojević. But before the game against the Atlanta Hawks started, Kerr and the Warriors coaching […]

There’s no single, overarching explanation behind the Golden State Warriors’ struggles through the first half of 2023-24. Draymond Green’s multiple suspensions and an ongoing rash of injuries to key contributors like Chris Paul, Moses Moody and Gary Payton II certainly haven’t made things easier. Steve Kerr was unable to settle on a full-time starting lineup […]

SAN FRANCISCO — There’s no right or wrong way for the Golden State Warriors to resume their season following the shocking death of beloved assistant coach Dejan Milojevic.
