Adds eight points in loss
Payton dropped eight points (3-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three rebounds, two steals and an assist over 16 minutes in Friday's 106-103 preseason loss to the Clippers.
The Scoop: Payton was brought back to Golden State after having an impactful 2024-25 regular season, averaging 6.5 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.3 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.3 blocks over 14.9 minutes in 62 regular-season games. However, it appears he will have to fight for minutes behind the likes of Buddy Hield, Brandin Podziemski and Jonathan Kuminga.
