Golden State Warriors president and general manager Bob Myers stepped down from his role with the franchise on Tuesday, telling ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski that it was "just time" for him to do so.
Having been in his position with the Warriors since 2012, Myers was the architect behind Golden State's last four NBA titles, two of which included four-time scoring champion Kevin Durant.
The 32-year-old helped the Warriors win their 2017 and 2018 championships after agreeing to a contract with the franchise ahead of the 2016-17 campaign.
Myers played a big role in luring Durant to Golden State in free agency, and the longtime executive told reporters Tuesday that the former MVP called him after he announced he was stepping down.
