The Golden State Warriors are projected to lose Jonathan Kuminga in free agency to a young Eastern Conference team.

NBA superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo came to the Bay Area for a Google event as rumors about a possible trade to the Golden State Warriors swirled.

May 2, 2025; San Francisco, California, USA; Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (30) holds onto the ball against the Houston Rockets in the third quarter of game six of the first round for the 2025 NBA Playoffs at Chase Center. Even with the trade, the Warriors still had to win, and win they did.

The Golden State Warriors have had over 600 players don the more than 60 jersey numbers used by their players over the more than 75 years of existence the team has enjoyed in its rich and storied history.

NBA fans react as Giannis Antetokounmpo was spotted at a Google event in San Francisco amid rampant trade rumors.

The Golden State Warriors have a chance, however slim, of trading for Giannis Antetokounmpo this offseason. Should the Milwaukee Bucks make him available, almost every team in the NBA is expected to put forward their best offer.

Start of NBA free agency negotiations: June 30 (July 6 to sign). The Warriors’ cap situation will be determined by what happens with Kuminga, who could free up room should he leave for another team. With the three superstars eating up significant cap space, the Warriors are not expected to sign any major free agents.
