OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — WNBA Golden State has named Ohemaa Nyanin as the team’s general manager, the franchise announced Monday.
Nyanin will oversee all basketball operations, inclusive of roster construction, team building and player development. She will report to Warriors co-executive chairman and CEO Joe Lacob and will begin her tenure with the team next week.
“Ohemaa is the perfect fit to lead our WNBA basketball operations as we prepare for our inaugural season in 2025,” Lacob said. “As we moved through the GM hiring process, it became more apparent each day how impressive and well-versed Ohemaa is in all facets of the business, and as a person. She brings an incredible knowledge of the WNBA and international women’s basketball landscape from her time with the Liberty and USA Basketball. Additionally, she has a deep passion and desire to build a strong culture and, ultimately, win basketball games. We are thrilled to welcome her to Golden State.”
