The 2021–22 Golden State Warriors season was the 76th season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA), their 60th in the San Francisco Bay Area, and their third season at the Chase Center.

On December 14, Stephen Curry hit five three-pointers against the New York Knicks to reach 2,977, which surpassed Ray Allen's career total of 2,973 for most three-pointers made in NBA history in the regular season.[1] Earlier in the season against the Chicago Bulls, Curry hit nine three-pointers to reach 3,366 which broke Allen's record of 3,358 for most three-pointers made in NBA history, regular season, and postseason combined.[2] Curry also became the first player in NBA history to surpass 500 three-pointers in the play-offs.

On January 9, Klay Thompson made his season debut against the Cleveland Cavaliers after missing the previous two seasons due to various injuries. He missed the 2019–20 season due to a left ACL tear, and the 2020–21 season due to a right Achilles tendon tear. He recorded 17 points and 3 rebounds in a 96–82 win.[3]

Stephen Curry, Andrew Wiggins, and Draymond Green were named to the 2022 NBA All-Star Game, however, Green did not play in the game due to injury. On February 20, Team LeBron defeated Team Durant in the All-Star Game and Curry, playing for Team LeBron, was named the All-Star Game MVP. This is the fifth time that a Warriors player has won the award. He scored 50 points, and set numerous All-Star Game records, including most three pointers made (16), and most all-time three pointers made in the All-Star Game (47).[4]

The Warriors clinched a playoff berth for the first time since 2018–19 season after a 111–107 win over the Utah Jazz on April 2.[5] In the first round of the playoffs, the Warriors would defeat the Denver Nuggets in five games.[6] In the second round, the Warriors would then upset the second seeded Memphis Grizzlies in six games.[7] They went on to defeat the Dallas Mavericks in five games, winning the Western Conference for the seventh time in their history, and the sixth time in the last eight years, first time this was accomplished since the Chicago Bulls from 1990 to 1998.[8] Also with the win, the Warriors under Steve Kerr have never lost a Western Conference playoff series, going 18–0 during this span, tied with the 1959–67 Boston Celtics for the longest playoff win streak in NBA history against their conference opponents.[9] Golden State defeated the Boston Celtics in the NBA Finals in 6 games in a rematch of the 1964 Finals in which the Celtics defeated the then-San Francisco Warriors in five games and won their seventh championship and first since 2018.
