Updated · 2026-27 season

Kristaps Porzingis is on the books for $20,000,000 in 2026-27, the 4th largest cap hit on the Golden State Warriors roster and 9.1% of the team's $220.8M payroll.

That ranks 95th among the 434 players with a 2026-27 salary on the books, and eats 12.1% of the $165.0M salary cap.

The deal has 2 seasons left on it, running through 2027-28, worth $20,000,000 in guaranteed money.

The salary is essentially flat across the deal, holding near $20,000,000 every year rather than escalating.

Not every year is locked in: 2027-28 player option.

The option year belongs to the player, not the team — he decides whether to take the money or return to the market, so the team cannot count on it either way.

At 31, this contract runs through his age-32 season, so the back end lands after the usual peak.

He is the 4th highest-paid of the 15 players on the roster, in the middle of the pay structure.

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.
