Kevon Looney's tenure with the Golden State Warriors is reportedly over after 10 seasons. ESPN's Shams Charania reported Monday he agreed to a two-year, $16 million deal with the New Orleans Pelicans.

The first domino to fall for the Warriors at the start of free agency is the exit of longtime center Kevon Looney. According to Shams Charania of ESPN, the veteran center is leaving Golden State to sign a two-year, $16 million deal with the New Orleans Pelicans.

Looney had been with the Warriors for the past 10 seasons, winning three NBA championships and cementing himself as a key figure in the organization. After battling injury woes for the first six years of his career, Looney became Golden State’s iron man, playing in all 82 games for back-to-back seasons in 2021-22 and 2022-23.
