Golden State Warriors vs LA Clippers starting lineups and depth charts for Oct. 5 | 2024 NBA Preseason
The Golden State Warriors and LA Clippers are set to face off in the NBA Preseason on Saturday in Honolulu, Hawaii. This promises to be an exciting and entertaining matchup with both teams bringing some star power to the Pacific island for their opening game.
After finishing with an underwhelming 46-36 record last season and missing out on the playoffs, the Warriors have added some veterans to compliment Steph Curry, Draymond Green and Jonathan Kuminga. Guards Buddy Hield and De’Anthony Melton, and forward Kyle Anderson should provide some much-needed depth for Golden State.
The Clippers will also have a new-look roster with some high-profile departures over the offseason. Paul George and Russell Westbrook moved to the Philadelphia 76ers and Denver Nuggets, respectively. Centers Daniel Theis and Mason Plumlee have also parted ways with the organization. James Harden will be the man to keep an eye on for Tyronn Lue’s Clippers during preseason.
