Texas A&M’s all-time leading scorer is headed to the Golden State Warriors for summer league play.
Wade Taylor IV signed with Golden State on Tuesday and is set to take part in summer league action this weekend, according to Luke Evangelist of TexAgs. The former Aggie guard will be part of the Warriors’ opening contests over Independence Day weekend.
Taylor left College Station as the Aggies’ career scoring leader and the first player in school history to clear 2,000 points. He finished with 2,000-plus after passing Bernard King’s previous mark of 1,990, a record King set from 1999 to 2003.
His college resume went far beyond scoring. Taylor owns 24 season or school records from his time in Bryan-College Station and sits in the top five in 30 other statistical categories. He also collected a long list of honors during his Texas A&M career, enough to earn a place in the rafters at Reed Arena.
The Dallas native is now trying to turn that production into an NBA opportunity. Taylor is coming off his first pro season with the G-League’s Mexico City Capitanes, where he posted 14.6 points, 6.2 assists, 2.4 rebounds and 1.2 steals across 36 games.
Before that, he was invited to play for the Milwaukee Bucks in the 2025 summer league. He entered the pro ranks as an undrafted guard, but his scoring has already translated at the G-League level as he continues his push for an NBA roster spot.
Golden State will use two teams in the 2026 summer league, and Taylor’s deal puts him on the roster for the early part of the event. The Warriors’ schedule begins Friday, July 3, at 7:30 p.m.
PDT with GSW Gold against the L.A. Lakers, followed by a busy stretch that includes games against Milwaukee, Sacramento, San Antonio, Brooklyn, Miami, Dallas, Oklahoma City, Memphis and New York before matchups July 17-19 against TBD.

Texas A&M Has One Last Five Star Shot At History
Texas A&Ms 2027 class is already sitting at No. 1, and the Aggies have put themselves in position to make a rare kind of recruiting statement. They are on pace to sign six five-star prospects, a total that would stand as the programs best haul in the modern recruiting era and put them in the same neighborhood as Alabamas elite 2023 class.
There is still one more big swing left on the board, and the Aggies appear to be in front for it. ON3 gives Texas A&M an 86.3 percent chance to land Dobson, and if that comes through, the class would climb to seven five-stars and match Alabamas benchmark from 2023. After missing on Texas native John Meredith III to Texas in June, the Aggies have a chance to finish this cycle with the kind of closing kick that lingers well beyond signing day. [Read more 🡒]
Texas A&M Fans Arent Ready For This Recruiting Gut Punch
Texas A&Ms 2027 recruiting board has already taken a few early hits, with top prospects Albert Simien and John Meredith heading elsewhere, and the latest development only adds to the unease around a class that had been tracking as one to watch. The focus now shifts to five-star cornerback Joshua Dobson, a player the Aggies once had firmly in the conversation as one of their premier targets.
Dobson is set to make his decision at 5 PM CT, and the momentum around his recruitment has clearly moved in a different direction as insiders adjust their picks late in the process. For Texas A&M, the concern is not just losing another blue-chip name, but watching a player it spent real energy on drift toward a rival that appears increasingly determined to close the deal.
