The NBA club said the Serbian suffered a heart attack at a private team dinner.
“We are absolutely devastated by Dejan’s sudden passing,” head coach Steve Kerr told the Warriors’ website.
“This is a shocking and tragic blow for everyone associated with the Warriors and an incredibly difficult time for his family, friends, and all of us who had the incredible pleasure to work with him.
“In addition to being a terrific basketball coach, Dejan was one of the most positive and beautiful human beings I have ever known, someone who brought joy and light to every single day with his passion and energy.
