The Golden State Warriors are close to making a deal to move to San Francisco, a source told ESPN the Magazine’s Ric Bucher on Sunday.
The team wants to make the move and is committed to making it happen, the source said.
San Francisco mayor Ed Lee sent a letter on May 11 saying the city would work with Warriors executives to bring the team to San Francisco in time for the 2017-18 season.
“We are not prepared to make any announcements at this time,” Warriors owner Joe Lacob said in a statement released Sunday.
