This is a change from the preseason opener when Steve Kerr went with Curry, De’Anthony Melton, Kuminga, Green, and Trayce Jackson-Davis. Kerr has been looking at different lineup combinations throughout training camp and is going with this five-man group against the Kings.
While preseason results are inconsequential, trends are important to follow. The Warriors picked up a 91-90 victory over the Clippers on Saturday, with Lindy Waters III hitting the game-winning shot at the buzzer.
