- On Sunday, former NBA head coach Frank Vogel agreed to join the Golden State Warriors as lead assistant under head coach Steve Kerr. The move bolsters Kerr's staff following key offseason departures.

- Golden State remains intent on maximizing Stephen Curry's remaining championship window while potentially making additional staff adjustments before training camp. The organization looks to improve following their most challenging season since 2019-20.
