The Golden State Warriors have stopped making payments to forward Kristaps Porzingis as the 29-year-old Latvian center weighs retirement from professional basketball, according to reports.
Porzingis, who joined the Warriors organization recently, has been evaluating his future in the NBA after a career that includes stints with the New York Knicks, Dallas Mavericks, Washington Wizards, and Boston Celtics. The 7-foot-3 big man was an NBA All-Star in 2018 and won an NBA championship with Boston in 2024.
The decision to halt payments suggests the team and player are working through contractual matters as Porzingis determines whether to continue his playing career. No official announcement regarding his retirement has been made by either the player or the franchise.
