Gary Payton II

Payton is averaging 5.4 points and 3 rebounds a game this season while shooting 45.6 percent from the floor.

Steph Curry busted out of his mini-slump for 35 points in one of the Warriors' best wins this season.

Payton is averaging 5.9 points and 3.1 rebounds per game on 47.9 percent shooting from the floor this season.

Payton threw out the ceremonial first pitch before the Giants played the Padres on Monday.

The Warriors moved away from their former No. 2 pick to bring back Gary Payton II. At the most important time, it's proving to be smart.

The Warriors lack of reliable depth put greater pressure on veterans, and those veterans didn't deliver.

Game 4 is set for Sunday at 3:30 p.m. ET at Chase Center.

The Warriors, until further notice, are still a major problem for the rest of the NBA.

Payton played in his first game for the Warriors since Game 6 of the Finals last June.

Klay Thompson finished with 27 points in the Warriors' win. He will play Tuesday in his first back-to-back games since he tore his ACL.

Warriors guard Gary Payton II will be evaluated in one month for his core muscle injury, GM Bob Myers said.

Teams don't have to wait to make trades on deadline day, but when they do, it opens the door for potential issues as we saw this weekend.

Following the trade, a physical revealed that Payton could miss two-to-three months with a core muscle issue, putting the deal in jeopardy.

The Lakers executed a scheme to overplay the 3 and clog the lane with their elite shot blocker. The Warriors didn't solve it.

The Warriors' latest bold move, the trade that sent out ex-No. 2 pick James Wiseman and brought back Gary Payton II, hangs in the balance.

GM explains his vision for future and defends how the team handled Payton, whose trade to Golden State is in jeopardy.

To acquire Payton, the Warriors traded James Wiseman to the Pistons and then rerouted Saddiq Bey to Atlanta for five second-round picks.

Reuniting with Gary Payton II was an all-in move for the Warriors on a smaller approach.
