NBA News: Golden State Warriors Starting Lineup Announced For Game Against Los Angeles Lakers
The Golden State Warriors will kick off their NBA season in a huge showdown with the Los Angeles Lakers in downtown Los Angeles at Staples Center on Tuesday evening.
The game will be directly following the Brooklyn Nets and Milwaukee Bucks, which will be the first game of the 2021-22 NBA regular season.
Both the Lakers and the Warriors are coming off of very disappointing seasons.
After winning the 2020 NBA Championship, the Lakers fell to the Phoenix Suns in the first round of the NBA Playoffs.
Meanwhile, the Warriors, who had made the NBA Finals five seasons in a row failed to make the playoffs for the second consecutive season.
Last season, they came just one game shy of making the playoffs, but lost to Ja Morant and the Memphis Grizzlies in the play-in tournament.
For their first game of the season on Tuesday evening against the Lakers, the starting lineup for the Warriors has been announced and can be seen in a Tweet that is embedded below from FantasyLabs NBA.
