Gary Payton II Contract & Salary

That ranks 367th among the 444 players with a 2026–27 salary on the books, and eats 1.5% of the $165.0M salary cap.

This is an expiring contract: 2026-27 is the last season on it, worth $2,449,421 guaranteed.

He sits in the bottom third of the roster by salary, the part of the payroll teams use to fill out the depth chart without moving the cap needle.

He is one of 15 players on the Golden State Warriors' books for 2026–27, whose 2026–27 salaries add up to $220,838,432.

Golden State Warriors sit at $220.8M in payroll and are currently classified Tax Payer, with -$12.3M of room below the first apron.
