Warriors sign forward Georges Niang to one-year, $3.9 million deal

Add The California Post on Google The Golden State Warriors filled the final spots on the roster Tuesday.

After signing Brandon Williams to a $2.6 million deal in the morning, the Warriors have inked another deal with free agent forward Georges Niang.

Niang, who missed the entire 2025–26 season because of injury, signed a one-year, $3.9 million contract with the Warriors.

The forward is the ultimate role player and journeyman. The Warriors will be Niang’s sixth team in 11 NBA seasons.

The 33 year old is a career 40% 3-point shooter and is widely known for his stretch four abilities. He’s a solid shooter, can space the floor and gives Golden State another gritty player.

This isn’t Niang’s first stint with the Warriors organization as he was with their G-League affiliate during the 2017–18 season. Niang has spent time with the Indiana Pacers, Utah Jazz, Philadelphia 76ers, Cleveland Cavaliers and Hawks.

After a quiet offseason, the Warriors have made two signings in the same day. Golden State targeted both Williams and Niang over the last month to fill its two open regular-season roster spots.
