Warriors Finalize Roster After Kuminga Deal, Add Horford, Melton and Seth Curry

Golden State now touts improved spacing, roster balance and flexibility.

Overview

  • Jonathan Kuminga agreed to a two-year contract reportedly worth up to $48.5 million with a second-year team option, clearing the way for pending signings to be completed.
  • Golden State officially signed Al Horford to a two-year deal that includes a player option, with Steve Kerr highlighting his shooting, defense and lineup versatility at center.
  • General manager Mike Dunleavy Jr. voiced confidence in the current group and said he doesn’t see a need for a major move now, though the team retains assets and contract flexibility.
  • Steve Kerr said the offense will run through Stephen Curry and Jimmy Butler, with Kuminga asked to pick his spots, defend, rebound and run while a sit-down is planned to align on his role.
