Brandin Podziemski could seek a significant raise from the Golden State Warriors as the two sides consider his next contract.
According to Brett Siegel, Podziemski and his representatives could push for a deal worth as much as $25 million annually following his increased production and contributions as a starter during the 2025-26 season.
“In terms of what a new deal for Podziemski could possibly look like, it is likely that the AAV would be between $22 million and $24 million,” Siegel reported.
Golden State would reportedly prefer to keep the annual salary considerably lower, potentially in the $15 million to $18 million range.
“While the sweet spot for the Warriors would be a deal somewhere between $15 million and $18 million, Podziemski and his camp would want to exceed this in their asking price due to his contributions as a starter and improved production during the 2025-26 season.”
Podziemski has played 3 seasons for the Warriors. He has averaged 11.6 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 3.6 assists in 220 regular-season games.
