The Warriors are adding much needed size as they continue to deal with injuries at the center position.

Golden State plans to sign center Charles Bassey to a contract, HoopsHype’s Michael Scotto reported Sunday, citing league sources.

The Golden State Warriors plan to sign Charles Bassey to a deal, league sources told @hoopshype. Bassey has averaged 4.2 points on 63% shooting from the field and 4.2 rebounds in 10.8 minutes during five NBA seasons combined with the 76ers, Spurs, Grizzlies, and Celtics. pic.twitter.com/njDROkpwFP

Bassey, 25, originally was a second-round pick by the Philadelphia 76ers in the 2021 NBA Draft. In five NBA seasons with Philadelphia (2021-22, 25-26), the San Antonio Spurs (2022-25), Memphis Grizzlies (2025-26), and Boston Celtics (25-26), Bassey has averaged 4.2 points, 4.2 rebounds and 0.8 assists per game on 63.1-percent shooting from the field in 121 career games (three starts).

The Warriors currently are without backup centers Al Horford (strained right calf) and Quinten Post (right foot soreness), so Bassey, if signed by Golden State, will provide depth at a depleted position currently held down by just Kristaps Porziņģis and Draymond Green.
