The Warriors intend to sign free agent guard Taevion Kinsey, sources tell Michael Scotto of HoopsHype (Twitter link).

While Scotto doesn’t clarify what type of contract the two sides agreed to, it will likely be a non-guaranteed Exhibit 10 deal for training camp.

If that comes to fruition, Kinsey would be eligible for a bonus worth up to $85,300 if he’s waived before the season starts and spends at least 60 days with the Warriors’ G League affiliate in Santa Cruz. Exhibit 10 contracts can also be converted to two-way deals, and the Warriors do have a pair of two-way openings, though those spots may already be spoken for, as we discussed yesterday.

Kinsey went undrafted in 2023 after starring in college at Marshall. He was named Sun Belt Player of the Year as a “super senior” in 2022/23 and is the Thunder Herd’s all-time leading scorer.

The 25-year-old shooting guard has signed Exhibit 10 deals with the Jazz each of the past two offseasons prior to being waived in the fall and then joining the Salt Lake City Stars. He briefly spent time with Utah on a 10-day deal in March 2024 and was also on a two-way contract for about a month last summer, but has yet to make his NBA regular season debut.

In 50 appearances for the Stars in ’24/25, Kinsey averaged 12.3 points, 3.5 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.0 steal on .525/.327/.662 shooting in 33.8 minutes per game. In 50 games (29.6 MPG) during the ’23/24 campaign, he averaged 10.8 PPG, 3.2 RPG, 2.1 APG and 0.8 SPG on .555/.427/.780 shooting.

According to Scotto, Kinsey was recently named to the G League United’s roster. The team will participate in the FIBA Intercontinental Cup in September.
