Warriors Re-Sign De’Anthony Melton to Two-Year Deal, Set Four-Week Re-Evaluation

The multiyear structure boosts his first-year cap charge and tightens space under the second-apron limit.

Overview

  • Golden State officially brought back De’Anthony Melton on a reported two-year, minimum-like contract with a player option for 2026–27.
  • The team says Melton will miss the start of the 2025–26 season as he continues ACL rehab and will be re-evaluated in four weeks.
  • GM Mike Dunleavy Jr. said the absence is not expected to be lengthy, and Steve Kerr indicated a hopeful timeline of the next couple of months.
  • Because the deal is multiyear, Melton’s full 2025–26 salary (approximately $3.08 million) counts against the cap, nudging the Warriors closer to the second apron.
  • The Warriors also signed Seth Curry to a non-guaranteed deal, with reporting indicating he is expected to be waived before opening night and could return later on a prorated minimum.
