Gary Payton II has opted-in to his $9.1 million player option for the 24-25 season with the Golden State Warriors.
Payton signed a three-year, $28 million deal with the Portland Trailblazers during the 2022 offseason and was then traded back to the Warriors at the 2023 trade deadline for five second round picks. Payton will be a free agent in 2025 unless he signs an extension.
In 44 games last season, Payton averaged 5.5 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 15.5 minutes.
Payton is represented by Aaron Goodwin.
