SANTA CRUZ WARRIORS HISTORYOn December 23, 2012, the Warriors tipped off the first professional basketball game in Santa Cruz history with a 93-88 victory against the Bakersfield Jam in front of a sellout crowd at Kaiser Permanente Arena. The game was a culmination of months of hard work and collaboration with the City of Santa Cruz, a partnership that began with the team’s move from Bismarck, North Dakota at the end of the 2011-12 season. With one NBA G League Championship in 2014-15, three Finals appearances and the most passionate fans in the league, the Warriors enter their sixth season proud to represent the Santa Cruz community on and off the court.

On June 27, 2011, new Golden State Warriors owners Joe Lacob and Peter Guber acquired the Dakota Wizards, with the intention of moving the team from Bismarck to Santa Cruz, California. Rebranding to the Santa Cruz Warriors, the purpose of the acquisition was to turn the team into a full-service minor league system for the franchise, a move that Lacob described as, “a critical step and another plus for our organization.” Operating only 80 miles south of the Golden State headquarters, the Santa Cruz Warriors provide its parent club with opportunities to develop on- and off-court talent while also celebrating its own unique identity and supporting the local community.

A vibrant and diverse community with a passionate basketball culture, the Warriors are fortunate to call Santa Cruz their home. Through the team’s community outreach initiatives, the Warriors are able to partner with local schools and nonprofits, connecting with the community and creating fans for life. The team’s 2,500 seat Kaiser Permanente Arena in downtown Santa Cruz is the arena the team calls home.

Peter GuberOwner, Golden State Warriors

In his role as Owner & CEO, Joe Lacob is the managing member of the Golden State Warriors’ ownership group. Currently in his ninth year as Warriors owner, he serves on the NBA Board of Governors and is a member of the league’s Planning Committee and Labor Committee.

Under Lacob’s guidance, the Warriors joined the Boston Celtics, Chicago Bulls and Los Angeles Lakers last season as the only franchises to win three NBA titles (2015, 2017, 2018) in a span of four seasons, becoming the first team to repeat as NBA champions since the Miami Heat in 2012 & 2013. In Lacob’s fifth season as owner in 2014-15, the Warriors ended a 40-year championship drought, beginning the most successful four-year run in NBA history (265-63 overall record) from 2014-15 through 2017-18, including four consecutive appearances in the NBA Finals and the most wins in a single season in NBA history (73-9 record) during the 2015-16 campaign. The Warriors have made six-straight playoff appearances for the first time since the inception of the league (1946-47 through 1951-52). In fact, prior to the last six seasons, the club had only made the playoffs once in the previous 18 years.

The franchise’s success in recent years has also extended to the business side. In 2014 and again in 2016, the Warriors were named “Sports Team of the Year” by the Sports Business Journal, in recognition of the organization’s innovative and successful business practices. This marks the first time that any professional team has won this prestigious sports business award more than once. Additionally, under Lacob’s leadership, the Warriors were named the 2016 winner of the Entrepreneurial Company of the Year (ENCORE) Award by the Stanford University Graduate School of Business in recognition of the organization’s entrepreneurial spirit in redefining sports management, pioneering the use of sports analytics in the NBA, and adopting new technologies that have transformed the fan experience. The Warriors are the first sports organization to win the ENCORE Award, which has been presented annually since 1982 to recognize best in class entrepreneurial companies from around the world and has included such recent winners as Google (2004), Apple (2005), and Amazon (2010).

In addition to the Warriors’ organization-wide honors, Lacob was named the 2016 recipient of the Sports Executive of the Year award by the Sports Business Journal. He was also named one of the Bay Area’s Most Admired CEO’s by the San Francisco Business Times in November of 2015.
