The Golden State Warriors opened their preseason against the Los Angeles Clippers in Honolulu on October 4, 2026. The game featured a new five-out offensive scheme under coach Steve Kerr, which did not produce favorable results as the Warriors lost, 104-101. Key players Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, and Al Horford played only the first half, and the team struggled with a 33% shooting percentage and 10 turnovers. The transition to a different style will require time, as players adapt to new roles and the offense prioritizes perimeter play. Kerr emphasized the need for patience as the team integrates their new approach.
