The dynasty continues — both on and off the court. According to Reuters, the Golden State Warriors have officially been named the NBA’s most valuable franchise, with a staggering valuation of
“Value on court, value beyond it — Warriors don’t just play the game, they shape it,” the team’s statement read, celebrating a milestone that reflects years of innovation, excellence, and strategic vision.
From Bay Area Roots to Global Dominance
What began as a modest franchise in the Bay Area has transformed into a global powerhouse — thanks to a blend of elite talent, visionary leadership, and a brand built on culture, community, and creativity
But beyond the hardwood, the Warriors’ success has extended into technology, entertainment, and fan engagement, fueled by their proximity to Silicon Valley and their forward-thinking ownership group. The opening of the
Business Meets Basketball
Analysts point to the Warriors’ ability to merge athletic excellence with business acumen as the key to their financial dominance. Merchandise sales, digital media deals, and international partnerships have turned the Warriors into a brand that transcends the sport itself.
“Golden State is more than a basketball team,” said a Reuters financial analyst. “They’re a global entertainment property — one that embodies innovation and connection, both on and off the court.”
Even as on-court challenges continue — with questions about aging stars and the next generation of talent — the Warriors’ financial muscle ensures they remain firmly positioned for long-term success.
Fans Celebrate a Legacy of Innovation
Reaction among fans was equal parts pride and nostalgia. On social media, hashtags like #DubNation and #ValueInTheGame began trending, with fans reflecting on the team’s journey from the struggles of the early 2000s to a modern-day empire.
“This team built more than championships,” one fan posted. “They built belief — in teamwork, in creativity, in the Bay.”
Shaping the Future of the Game
With this valuation, the Warriors surpass the New York Knicks and Los Angeles Lakers — two of the league’s most iconic franchises — further solidifying their position as basketball’s new-era benchmark.
As the team continues its pursuit of another championship, one thing is certain: the Warriors’ legacy is no longer confined to wins and banners. It’s a blueprint for how to redefine success in modern sports.
Browns Insider Gives Stunning Outlook On Shedeur Sanders’ Future
The Cleveland Browns will remain with Dillon Gabriel as the team’s starting quarterback.
Gabriel is set to start his third straight game, while fellow rookie
However, Browns insider Mary Kay Cabot doesn’t think Sanders would have much success if he played. Instead, the insider believes Sanders would be in for a world of hurt if he starts.
“Question is, would Sanders fare any better? With so many issues on the unit, it would probably be just as tough sledding for him as it’s been for Gabriel, and as it was for Flacco. The one area where Sanders would have Gabriel beat is in accuracy,” Cabot
“But with this offense struggling in almost every aspect — except perhaps the running game when the defense allows it — Sanders might be thrown to the wolves and set up for a world of hurt in his first few starts if he’s not ready…. But it’s turbulent cockpit right now for a Browns rookie quarterback, whether his name is Gabriel or Sanders,” Cabot added.
Cabot believes Sanders would likely get sacked quite often, as that was an issue for him in college. So, she believes the Browns are smart in not starting Sanders, as it wouldn’t be an improvement over Gabriel right now.
Browns’ Dillon Gabriel Learning From Every Start
Although Sanders won’t be starting games anytime soon, he is focused on helping Gabriel.
Gabriel, meanwhile, knows he has to be better than he was against the
“Just, I think you continue to learn from each start,” Gabriel said. “Each time going in there there’s a lot of details that you want to fine tune and continue to get better at and get more comfortable with that. But, you know, margin for error is small as well. So, I think I knew that but continue to learn that and try to evolve to be better for this team.”
Although Gabriel is still learning on the job, he knows the offense has to get better, and that starts with him.
“There’s solutions that you want to find, to find a better outcome,” Gabriel said. “But like I said, it comes down to a couple plays that could be here or there. And I think you can look at third downs, we can be better at red area, running the football, being more efficient in the pass game. So, I think if you look at it through that, there’s a lot of areas we can be better.”
The Browns will host the Miami Dolphins on Sunday.
Sanders Focused on Helping Gabriel
With Sanders remaining the backup, he has made his goal clear each week.
Sanders said he plans on making sure Gabriel is as prepared as possible so he and the offense can have success.
“We’re going to make sure we do everything we can to make sure Dillon is ready for the game,” Sanders said. “So each and every day, even when Joe (Flacco) was the starter, everything. Prepare the right way and be ready to know that you could get out there any point in time. So, I’m overly confident within myself. I know when I first got here, I’m ready to play. But it’s up to the coache. And whatever decision they make, then I’m fine with.”
Although Sanders wants to start, his focus is on being the best teammate possible.
