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 […]
NBA’s Presidents Day quadruple-header headlined by Warriors
Playing with Steph Curry means you aren’t going to get a lot of holidays off. This year, the Warriors won’t be part of the league’s Martin Luther King, Jr. Day showcase, but they will anchor the league’s inaugural Presidents Day quadruple-header. 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. The 33-year-old forward missed all of last […]
Warriors fan survey: How will Golden State do this season?
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NBA. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Warriors fans and fans across the country. The Golden State Warriors limped into the play-in tournament in 2025-26, and were eliminated before the playoffs. But in 2024-25? They made quite a run, and […]
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 […]
Warriors will host Joker for Christmas
They’ll be stocking the luxury suites and personal wine cellars of the Chase Center with milk and cookies again this year. For the 14th season in a row, Steph Curry and Draymond Green will be working on Christmas Day, as the Golden State Warriors host Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets in the final game […]
Warriors mailbag: Steph Curry, Jonathan Kuminga, and the season outlook
We’re deep in the offseason and, well … the Golden State Warriors still really haven’t done anything. Seems like a good time for a mailbag. The community had some great questions! Warriorrallis:How to save the NBA I ain’t streaming sporting events so likely a mute point as my sports fandom is likely nearing its end […]

The NBA world lost one of its greats on Sunday, as Hall of Famer Don Nelson has passed away at the age of 86. His family announced the news, saying, “On Sunday morning our beloved husband, dad, grandfather and great-grandfather Don Nelson peacefully went to be with the Lord, surrounded by his loving family.

Dub Hub: How much would Brandin Podziemski’s contract extension cost the Warriors?
In today’s Dub Hub: The Golden State Warriors have made it clear they intend to run it back next season after keeping most of their roster intact. So, with this emphasis on continuity, the organization will have to rely on internal improvement from its current players, specifically 23-year-old guard Brandin Podziemski as he enters his […]
Warriors Draymond Green doesn’t care that he doesn’t have a no-trade clause
The biggest talk around the Golden State Warriors lately has been Draymond Green’s contract. Shortly after LeBron James announced that he would be signing with the Philadelphia 76ers, the Warriors re-signed Green for one year and $27.7 million. For some fans, this was seen as an overpay, but the reality is very simple: Green was […]
Dub Hub: Steph Curry calls himself a ‘realist’ amid Warriors’ quiet offseason
In today’s Dub Hub: Based on their offseason moves, the Golden State Warriors have made it clear they are comfortable running it back next season.

Dub Hub: Draymond Green, Klay Thompson respond to Kevin Durant’s Warriors–76ers comparison
In today’s Dub Hub: When LeBron James made his decision to join the Philadelphia 76ers this offseason, it quickly made them one of the NBA’s newest superteams. The revamped roster now features James alongside Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey, and Jaylen Brown, giving Philadelphia one of the most star-studded lineups in the league. Of course, whenever […]
More of the same: Warriors agree to one-year deal with Gary Payton II
We finally have confirmation that the Golden State Warriors will indeed be re-signing Gary Payton II. While rumors have swirled for weeks that the Dubs and Payton were expected to agree to a veteran minimum deal to return, Marc Stein of SteinLine reported on Saturday morning that the two sides were expected to finalize a […]
Can Warriors fans envision Klay in a Heat jersey?
Every time Klay Thompson’s name shows up in a trade rumor that doesn’t involve Golden State, there’s a version of me that flinches a little. Watching him drain threes in a Mavericks jersey on Christmas Day was already enough of an adjustment for one lifetime. But if the sharpshooter with the quickest release we’ve ever […]
Are the 76ers the best roster LeBron’s ever had?
In 2022 when the Warriors won their last title, if you told me that one day LeBron James, Joel Embiid, Jaylen Brown, and D(ean) Wade would be on the 76ers I’d be like hell to the naw naw. (Also, where is Ben Simmons?!) And yet here we are! Here’s the part that should scare the […]
Report: Warriors eyeing several free agent veterans to round out roster
The Golden State Warriors still need to add some players to fill out their roster, and it seems they’ve narrowed down the candidates. According to a recent report by Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints, the Dubs are considering center Kelly Olynyk, combo guard Brandon Williams, and guard Gabe Vincent for the team’s final three roster spots […]
The Cavaliers lost more than a series this summer
There’s a beautiful kind of joy that comes from watching a fanbase feel invincible for exactly one quarter. Rewind to Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals, the Cavaliers are up 22. Donovan Mitchell’s cooking, the crowd at the Garden is booing its own team, and somewhere in Cleveland, ten years of championship famine is […]
Report: Warriors still considering re-signing Gary Payton II
While the Golden State Warriors have re-signed Draymond Green as they fill out their roster after losing the LeBron James sweepstakes, Dubs free agent Gary Payton II remains on the market. However, according to a report by Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints, Payton remains “in consideration for a minimum deal from the Warriors” as the front […]
Report: Warriors eyeing another run at Rockets SF Kevin Durant
The Golden State Warriors front office will not be dodging any of the criticism that they only are willing to make the obvious moves after a report by Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints that the Dubs front office “has not completely moved on from the idea of one day reuniting Curry with former Warrior and two-time […]
Will the Thunder shake off the nightmare ending to their title reign?
Somewhere in Oklahoma City right now there’s a front office that understands something the rest of the league is still catching up on. Seventy-three wins isn’t a number. It’s a dare. And this year the Thunder walked right up to it, put their hand on the door, and found out the same thing Dub Nation […]
The Spurs just learned the 2012 Thunder lesson
I consider myself something of a modern day basketball historian. With the rise of the internet and misinformation, it’s easy for people to get caught up in the hoopla of social media and miss parallels to the past that teach us so much about basketball and life. That’s what got me thinking about the San […]
Rival report: The Clippers are still waiting on their offseason
The Warriors’ rival report has it’s final opponent in the crosshairs down in L.A. but it ain’t the Lakers. The Clippers are the one Pacific team whose offseason can’t really be graded yet, because the trade that defines it hasn’t actually closed. Before Golden State gets to the part of the summer where every team’s […]
Rival report: Kings’ financial situation hamstringing moves
Keeping it moving here on the rival report here at GSOM, we’re working through the Pacific Divsion to give a shout out to the moribund Kings. Sacramento is still one of the first teams the Warriors have to solve every season. Before we start obsessing over whatever superteam the rest of the league built this […]
Rival report: Bridges changed the story of the Suns’ offseason
Let’s get back to the Warriors’ divisional rivals out in the big blue Pacific, continuing with the Suns. I previously broke down their draft day strategy and now we’re talking what happened after free agency. Phoenix is the team that ended the Warriors’ season last spring, in a play-in elimination game that still stings a […]
Rival report: Lakers bet big on Kessler and life after LeBron
Right after the draft and before free agency I wrote a series talking about what the Golden State Warriors divisional rivals had been cooking up. It’s time to take it to the next level and talk about what these foos did after that. The Los Angeles Lakers are a team the Warriors have to worry […]
