Golden State Warriors president Bob Myers announced his resignation Tuesday, according to a person with knowledge of the move.
The 48-year-old Myers, who joined the Warriors in 2011 after a successful career as a player agent, made several key moves that aided the franchise’s recent dynasty, including hiring Coach Steve Kerr in 2014 and acquiring Kevin Durant in 2016. In recognition of those efforts and Golden State’s sustained success, Myers was named the NBA’s executive of the year in 2015 and 2017.
Mike Dunleavy Jr., the Warriors’ vice president of basketball operations, is one potential internal candidate to replace Myers. The 42-year-old Dunleavy, who was drafted by Golden State with the third pick in the 2002 draft, was hired to a front office role by the organization in 2018 and promoted to his current role in 2021.
