Overview

• Warriors announced on May 29 that the 22-year-old guard underwent debridement surgery to remove damaged tissue from his left wrist.
• Podziemski averaged 11.7 points, 5.1 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game in the regular season but shot just 36.4% over 12 playoff games.
• His recovery timeline puts him on track to participate in 2025–26 training camp and ramp up offseason preparation.
• The procedure may explain his early Western Conference semifinal struggles, when he made only nine of 40 shots across the first four games.
• Podziemski’s surgery follows Moses Moody’s right thumb operation less than a week earlier as Golden State manages multiple player health issues.
