Former Wisconsin Badgers point guard Nick Boyd was signed by the Golden State Warriors as an undrafted free agent after the 2026 NBA Draft, and he’s already in action as summer league began last week.
Boyd, playing on the Warriors Blue team, has started at point guard for Golden State’s first two games, where we’ve seen some mixed results. In his first career action, Boyd had 11 points, good for second on the team, but on 2 of 10 shooting and 1 of 5 from three-point range. He also added three assists, two steals, and two turnovers, while being a -9 in the box score.
But, one day later on Sunday, Boyd fared better in a 91-85 loss to the Sacramento Kings. Playing 27 minutes, which ranked second on the team, the point guard put up 11 points, 10 assists, and six rebounds, while turning the ball over three times.
He was the team’s third-leading scorer behind Jacksen Moni (18 points) and RJ Nembhard Jr. (17 points). Boyd was also a -1 in the box score.
Boyd will be back in action in the California Classic one last time on Monday evening, as the Warriors Blue Team faces the Nets. Then, it’s off to Las Vegas for the remainder of Summer League, with the next game coming on Thursday.
Given his high minute count so far, Boyd should get plenty of opportunities as Summer League goes on.
