Warriors Given Failing Free Agency Grade Amid Underwhelming Offseason

   

It has been an underwhelming offseason thus far for the Golden State Warriors as they have yet to make any moves in free agency.

Golden State entered the summer looking to upgrade their roster around their star trio of Stephen Curry, Jimmy Butler and Draymond Green, but that has not been the case thus far.

The only moves the Warriors have made this offseason was during the NBA draft where they selected Alex Toohey and Will Richard in the second round.

Of course, the Warriors are still awaiting a decision by restricted free agent Jonathan Kuminga as he could elect to be moved via a sign-and-trade.

Due to this, Golden State has waited to sign any other players in free agency as they have missed out on some key names and also saw Kevon Looney depart to the New Orleans Pelicans, further hurting their center position.

 

With their lack of moves this summer, Bleacher Report’s Greg Swartz gave them an F free agency grade.

“So far, the 2025-26 Golden State Warriors project to look remarkably similar to the group that ended the 2024-25 season,” Swartz wrote. “The Jonathan Kuminga situation is far from settled. The center position is worse with Looney leaving for the New Orleans Pelicans and a lot of the best veteran minimum level guys have already signed elsewhere. If Golden State can sign Al Horford and sign-and-trade Kuminga for other players/picks, this could still be a good offseason. For now, the Warriors have done nothing to earn anything but a failing grade.”

Swartz makes a great point about how the Warriors could turn their offseason into a solid one once Kuminga makes his decision and if they are able to sign some other players in free agency.

While that may the case, Golden State has missed out on some key players they have been linked to thus far and they are running out of options to upgrade their roster and chase a championship next season.
