Warriors' Gary Payton: Adds eight points in loss
Payton dropped eight points (3-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three rebounds, two steals and an assist over 16 minutes in Friday's 106-103 preseason loss to the Clippers.
Payton was brought back to Golden State after having an impactful 2024-25 regular season, averaging 6.5 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.3 blocks over 14.9 minutes in 62 regular-season games. However, it appears he will have to fight for minutes behind the likes of Buddy Hield, Brandin Podziemski and Jonathan Kuminga.

Warriors' Gary Payton: Goes scoreless in Game 5 loss
Payton ended with one steal over six minutes during Wednesday's 121-110 loss to the Timberwolves in Game 5 of the Western Conference Semifinals.
Payton barely touched the floor, playing fewer than seven minutes for just the fourth time all season. Despite his continued defensive presence, Payton's shortcomings on the offensive end limit what he can do on the basketball court. He scored double digits only once during the playoffs, while tallying just 13 total points during the most recent series against the Timberwolves. With an aging lineup, the offseason is going to be an interesting one for Golden State, particularly around what direction it takes moving forward.

Warriors' Gary Payton: Barely plays in elimination game
Payton provided one steal in six minutes during Wednesday's 121-110 loss to the Timberwolves in Game 5 of the Western Conference Semifinals.
Payton was used sparingly in the postseason, playing an average of 16.4 minutes across 11 games. The regular season was a similar story, as Payton made 62 appearances with averages of 6.5 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.5 three-pointers on 57.4 percent shooting in 15.0 minutes per contest. The 32-year-old veteran is likely to have a decent market once he hits free agency this offseason for his perimeter defense.

Warriors' Gary Payton: Sees 26 minutes in win
Payton closed Tuesday's 99-88 victory over the Timberwolves in Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals with eight points (3-4 FG, 2-3 3Pt), five rebounds, four assists and one steal over 26 minutes.
After missing the club's first-round Game 7 win over the Rockets on Sunday due to the illness, Payton was back in action Tuesday and saw a much bigger role than anticipated with Stephen Curry tweaking his hamstring. Curry is expected to be sidelined through at least Game 4, and Payton is one of several players who could see increased minutes in his absence.

Payton will return to game action after missing the club's first-round Game 7 win over the Rockets on Sunday due to the illness. The 32-year-old swingman averaged 6.3 points, 2.3 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 0.8 steals across 15.8 minutes per game in six first-round appearances (one start).

Warriors' Gary Payton: Questionable for Tuesday
Payton (illness) is questionable for Game 1 of the Western Conference second-round series against the Timberwolves on Tuesday, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.
Payton is in jeopardy of missing his second consecutive contest after sitting out the club's first-round Game 7 win over the Rockets on Sunday due to an illness. If the veteran swingman is unable to suit up against Minnesota, Buddy Hield and Brandin Podziemski are candidates for an uptick in playing time.

Warriors' Gary Payton: Ruled out for Game 7
Payton (illness) has been ruled out for Game 7 of the Western Conference first-round series against the Rockets on Sunday.
After starting in Game 6, Payton won't be on the floor Sunday due to an illness. With the defensive-minded guard set to watch from the bench, Golden State will likely pivot to Buddy Hield, Moses Moody and Pat Spencer to pick up the slack in the backcourt.

Payton (illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday's Game 7 against the Rockets.
