The Warriors intend to re-sign free agent guard Gary Payton II, according to Marc Stein of The Stein Line (Twitter link), who reports that the deal between the two sides is on track to be finalized this weekend.
Payton will be signing a one-year, $3.9MM contract with Golden State, sources tell Shams Charania of ESPN (Twitter link). Those terms suggest it’ll be a veteran’s-minimum arrangement, as the guard’s minimum salary this season is $3,876,529. Golden State would carry a $2,449,421 cap hit.
