Watch: Gary Payton II’s best miked up moments of the season
The Golden State Warriors season may be over, but that isn’t stopping the team from keeping its fan base engaged as the playoffs pick up speed. In the latest release from the Warriors social media team, they’ve treated fans to a “best of” montage of Gary Payton II’s miked up moments from the 2023-24 season.
Payton II, 31, played in 44 games for Steve Kerr’s team this season due to multiple injuries that limited his availability. As such, he didn’t have the defensive impact many had hoped. Nevertheless, his all-action style of play continued to endear himself to the Warriors fan base, as did his humorous personality.
It’s likely we see Payton II again next season. He has a player option on his contract worth $9.1 million. Due to his lack of availability this season, it would make sense if he opted in to staying with the hope of rebuilding his value ahead of next summer.
