Santos spent his first two NBA seasons as a name at the end of the bench, a Brazilian second-round pick collecting spot minutes and G League reps. In 2025-26 the patience paid off: he more than doubled his scoring, started 30 games, and closed the year averaging better than 15 points over his final stretch. What stands out beyond the scoring is the passing; his assist numbers climbed as Golden State trusted him to keep the ball moving inside their motion offense, a real sign he had graduated from finisher to contributor. He shot 50% from the floor, a mark that reflects shot selection as much as touch. Whether the leap holds is the question, but he earned the rotation minutes rather than inheriting them.

Did You Know?
Santos is one of the few players in Warriors history to make the NBA roster directly from Brazil, bypassing the college route entirely and developing through the franchise's G League affiliate.
He grew up idolizing Leandro Barbosa — the Brazilian guard who won an NBA championship with the Warriors in 2015 and blazed the trail for South American players to thrive in Golden State's system.
Santos speaks Portuguese as his first language and has become a bridge between the Warriors' international fanbase in Brazil and the franchise's global brand ambitions.
His nickname 'Gui' (pronounced Ghee) is standard in Brazilian Portuguese — the name Guilherme shortens naturally to Gui in the same way William becomes Will in English.
