Golden State Warriors Sign Will Richard to Four-Year Rookie Contract

News summary

The Golden State Warriors have signed Will Richard, their No. 56 pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, to a four-year contract that includes two fully guaranteed years and a team option for the fourth season. Richard, a versatile 6-foot-4 guard from the University of Florida, averaged around 13 points, 4.6 rebounds, and nearly 2 assists per game during his senior year and helped lead Florida to a national championship. The Warriors are investing in Richard as a promising young player who can add depth to their wing rotation and fit well into their fast-paced, three-point shooting system. His signing is part of the Warriors' broader roster-building strategy ahead of the season, which also includes multi-year deals for Al Horford and guards De'Anthony Melton and Gary Payton II. Due to salary cap considerations, Richard's contract counts toward luxury tax and tax apron calculations at his actual salary. The Warriors plan to finalize these deals while managing negotiations with restricted free agent Jonathan Kuminga, who has a signing deadline on October 1.
