Warriors announce Summer League roster
The Warriors begin Summer League next weekend at Chase Center.
The Warriors released their 2024 Summer League roster on Sunday, setting the stage for upcoming offseason activities.
Last year’s rookies Brandin Podziemski — a First-Team All-Rookie selection — and Trayce Jackson-Davis headline Golden State’s team, which will be coached by assistant Anthony Vereen. Both players have always been expected to participate in Summer League.
The Warriors also added Kevin Knox II to their roster. Knox, a free agent, was the ninth overall pick in the 2018 draft. He most recently played in the NBA for the Pistons last year. Free agents on the fringe of NBA rosters can use the Summer League as a tryout to boost their stock league-wide and try to earn a contract.

Reece Beekman, the Virginia guard whom Golden State signed to a two-way deal, is also on the squad. A two-time ACC Defensive Player of the Year, Beekman has work to do offensively to show he’s capable of contributing at the NBA level.
The Warriors’ only draft pick, Quinten Post, isn’t on the initial roster, but that’s likely a formality. The helter-skelter Draft Day trades that netted the Warriors Post with the 52nd pick is not yet finalized. Once it is, Golden State can add Post to the Summer League roster. General manager Mike Dunleavy Jr. said that the Boston College center is dealing with a minor leg injury, but Post is still likely to participate in Summer League in some capacity.
Warriors players Gui Santos and Pat Spencer are also on the team.
The Warriors are holding Summer League media day on Monday, July 1, and begin Summer League play next weekend with the California Classic at Chase Center.
