Warriors' Georges Niang: Inks contract with Golden State
Niang (foot) signed a one-year, $3.9 million contract with the Warriors on Tuesday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Niang suffered a fourth metatarsal stress reaction in his left foot last offseason and was eventually traded from Utah to Memphis in February before being waived. He was unable to catch on with a team after being let go by the Grizzlies, though he'll provide frontcourt depth for the Warriors in 2026-27 and should be ready to go by the time training camp rolls around. Over 79 regular-season appearances (three starts) between the Cavaliers and Hawks in 2024-25, he averaged 9.9 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 21.5 minutes per tilt.

Grizzlies' Georges Niang: Traded to Memphis
The Jazz traded Niang (foot), Walter Clayton, Taylor Hendricks, Kyle Anderson (illness) and three first-round picks to the Grizzlies on Tuesday in exchange for Jaren Jackson, John Konchar (neck), Jock Landale and Vince Williams, per Shams Charania of ESPN.
Niang continues to recover from offseason foot surgery, which prevented him from making his season debut with Utah. The forward remains without a clear timeline for a return, so it's difficult to envision how Niang's presence might affect the Memphis rotation until he finally takes the floor in 2025-26.
