Warriors show new offense style in preseason loss to Clippers
Summary

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.
