Bogut announced his retirement Monday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bogut actually broke the news himself on his "Rogue Bogues" podcast, noting that he had initially hoped to play for Australia in the 2020 Olympics prior to the Games' postponement due to the pandemic. Instead, Bogut will retire after a lengthy international and NBA career that spanned 14 seasons. The No. 1 overall pick in the 2005 NBA Draft, Bogut spent time in Milwaukee, Golden State, Dallas, Cleveland and Los Angeles before playing the last two seasons in Australia. Bogut was an All-NBA Third Team selection in 2009-10 and won an NBA championship as a member of the Warriors in 2014-15.

Bogut is listed as day-to-day after suffering an ankle injury during an exhibition game against Team Germany on Wednesday, Olgun Uluc of FOX Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Early medical reports came back favorable for Bogut, but it still seems that he'll need some time to recover in advance of the FIBA Basketball World Cup.

Bogut revealed after the NBA Finals that he plans to re-sign with the Sydney Kings of Australia's National Basketball League during the offseason, Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Area reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bogut announced his retirement from the NBA in April 2018, but the 34-year-old was lured back to North America less than a year later when the Warriors came calling. The veteran center filled a minor depth role in his second stint with the club, appearing in 11 regular-season games and 19 postseason contests. After his deal with Golden State expired June 30, Bogut has elected not to pursue a deal in the NBA and will instead return to his home country to finish out his professional career.

Bogut will come off the bench for Saturday's Game 3 against the Trail Blazers, Logan Murdock of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
EDGE Analysis
In a surprising move, coach Steve Kerr will start Damian Jones ahead of Bogut. Across the past two games, Bogut has seen a combined 12 minutes, but it's possible his workload will be reduced.

Bogut had just three rebounds, one assist, and one block in 12 minutes during Friday's 118-113 victory over the Rockets.
EDGE Analysis
Bogus moved into the starting lineup with Kevin Durant (calf) sidelined but failed to score during his 12 minutes on the floor. His role is unstable at best and looking ahead to the Conference Finals, he is unlikely to find himself in a more favorable position.

Bogut will get the start at center for Friday's Game 6 matchup with the Rockets, Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bogut will replace Kevin Durant (calf) in the starting lineup. Kevon Looney considered another possible option to start, as he saw relatively healthy minutes after Durant went down in Game 5. However, the Warriors will opt for Bogut's defense and veteran presence.

Bogut will play a reserve role in Friday's Game 6 matchup with the Clippers, Andrew Greif of the Los Angeles Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bogut has started at center since DeMarcus Cousins tore his quad in Game 2, but the Clippers recent success by going small with JaMychal Green at center likely forced the Warriors' hand here. Thus, Bogut will presumably be in line for a reduced workload off the bench.

Bogut amassed eight points (4-7 FG), 10 rebounds, and four assists in 21 minutes during Sunday's 113-105 victory over the Clippers.
EDGE Analysis
Bogut managed just 21 minutes before fouling out Sunday but was still able to leave his mark on the game with eight points and 10 rebounds. He continues to thrive as the starting center and has certainly been a nice addition for the Warriors. He doesn't have the upside of a player like DeMarcus Cousins (quad) but is a perfect fit for the uptempo Warriors offense and should continue to see solid minutes for the remainder of the playoffs.

Bogut totaled eight points (4-5 FG), 14 rebounds, five assists, one steal, and one block in 25 minutes during Thursday's 132-105 victory over the Clippers.
EDGE Analysis
Bogut moved into the starting lineup with DeMarcus Cousins (quad) expected to miss the rest of the post-season. He amassed just eight points but added a game-high 14 rebounds to go with five dimes. The addition of Bogus prior to the playoffs is looking like a masterstroke and he arguably allows the Warriors to function at a higher level, as opposed to having Cousins on the floor.

Bogut, in the wake of DeMarcus Cousins' (quad) injury, will start at center moving forward, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Cousins is presumably lost for the remainder of the postseason, and coach Steve Kerr will put his faith in Bogut, who earned a title with the Warriors in 2014-15. Bogut started five games during the regular season, averaging 4.6 points, 6.2 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.2 blocks in 19.0 minutes. Kevon Looney figures to see an uptick in workload as well.
