Official signing in Golden State
The Golden State Warriors have signed Graham Ike to a two-way contract effective September 21, adding the free agent to their NBA roster for 2026/27. The move is official and completes the franchise third and final two-way slot before preseason.
The transaction appears in NBA.com oficial and was reported by NBC Sports, which lists Ike alongside LJ Cryer and Malevy Leons as Golden State two-way players.
Graham Ike profile
Ike, a 6-foot-9, 24-year-old big, arrives undrafted after five college seasons at Wyoming and Gonzaga. In his final year he was WCC Player of the Year and earned AP third-team All-America honors with 19.9 points and 8.0 rebounds per game.
After signing an Exhibit 10 deal in June, he strengthened his case in Las Vegas Summer League with the Warriors, averaging 10.0 points and 7.2 rebounds in 21.2 minutes on the championship roster. NBC Sports confirms he takes Golden State final available two-way spot.
Roster fit
With Ike in place, the Warriors complete a two-way trio that includes Cryer and Leons, a familiar structure for a project that splits development minutes between the main roster and G League affiliate Santa Cruz Warriors. The interior player brings rebounding and finishing in a role suited to G League rotation when not with Golden State.
ClutchPoints reports that Ike selection leaves 2026 second-round pick Lajae Jones outside that two-way slot, with Santa Cruz as his likely destination. For Golden State, the move prioritizes a profile already tested in summer over a fresher draft investment.
Market context
The signing was effective September 21, in the final procedural window before training camp. As an effective two-way deal, Ike is already part of the franchise contractual structure and can split time between the NBA and the G League based on staff needs.
