Golden State has agreed to a fully guaranteed five-year, $110 million extension with starting guard Brandin Podziemski. The deal includes a mutual option in its final season and keeps the 23-year-old out of restricted free agency next summer. Podziemski’s durability and role beside Stephen Curry made retaining him a priority for the Warriors.
