Future Santa Cruz Warriors shine in loss to Trail Blazers
The Golden State Warriors’ 123-118 loss to the Portland Trail Blazers told us very little about what this year’s team will be like, but it did indicate that the Santa Cruz Warriors could have a very exciting season. In a game where nine of the Warriors’ top players didn’t even travel to Portland — Draymond […]
Valkyries take Game Deuce from Aces
When you’re playing blackjack, it’s always a smart move to split aces. When you’re holding onto home-court advantage in the WNBA playoffs, it’s crucial not to let the Las Vegas Aces get a split. The Golden State Valkyries withstood a furious 4th-quarter comeback from the Aces, who overcame a 17-point deficit and took their first […]
How to watch Warriors vs. Trail Blazers
No rest for the weary, even in the preseason, as the Golden State Warriors travel up north to play against the Portland Trail Blazers for Wednesday’s second night of a back-to-back.

Warriors dominate shorthanded Lakers for 1st preseason win
Steph Curry may have reminded us on Sunday that preseason results don’t matter, but there’s still an expectation to handle business. And for the Golden State Warriors, that meant there was an expectation that they would easily beat a Los Angeles Lakers squad that was playing without their three core, Luka Dončić, Austin Reaves, and […]
How to watch Warriors vs. Lakers
The Golden State Warriors continue their preseason with Tuesday night’s home matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers. The game will be played at 7:00 PM PT in San Francisco and can be watched on NBA TV and NBC Sports Bay Area. Previously with the Warriors: The Warriors lost their preseason opener to the Los Angeles […]
Steph Curry reminds us that preseason results don’t matter
The Golden State Warriors lost their preseason opener on Sunday in Honolulu, falling 104-101 to the LA Clippers in a game that came down to the wire. If you want to dismiss the results because regulars don’t play as much in the preseason, well … that doesn’t help Golden State’s case, since they trailed by […]
Can Brandon Williams be the 2nd unit spark plug for the Warriors?
There were plenty of reasons why the Golden State Warriors shocked the world four-and-a-half years ago, and won their fourth NBA championship in a span of eight years. Steph Curry was the main reason, obviously, while Steve Kerr, Draymond Green, and Klay Thompson were huge factors. Andrew Wiggins’ temporary leap to stardom was integral, as […]
Warriors start preseason with 104-101 loss to Clippers in Hawaii
‘Twas only the first game of the preseason, but if it was a portent of the season to come for the Golden State Warriors, it wasn’t a particularly hopeful indicator. Granted, both Steph Curry (10 points) and Draymond Green (two assists, two steals) played a shade under 15 minutes and saw a grand total of […]
Valkyries start the semis with a bang, beat Aces 71-60 in Game 1
The first trip to the WNBA Semifinals in the Golden State Valkyries’ short history started off on the right foot, with the Valkyries beating the defending-champion Las Vegas Aces 71-60 on Sunday afternoon. It was a massive victory for Golden State, as they proved they can get the better of an Aces team that won […]

Valkyries advance after thrilling comeback
The Golden State Valkyries kept their season alive on Friday night in dramatic fashion, beating the Dallas Wings 77-73 following a stunning second-half comeback. With the win, the Valkyries won the best-of-three series 2-1, and notched the first series victory in the two-year history of the franchise. From the start, the game was a defensive […]
Two thumbs up on De’Anthony Melton’s offseason
Last season, De’Anthony Melton committed a career-high 1.9 turnovers per game, and made only 29.4 percent of his three-point attempts. You could say he was all thumbs. He may have a better grasp of his game in 2026-27 thanks to some offseason procedures. Melton was slowed last season by an injury to his right thumb […]
Steve Kerr says Draymond Green will start, but 3 spots are up in the air
There are a lot of questions facing the Golden State Warriors ahead of the 2026-27 NBA season. Some of them are complex and nuanced, but some of them are as simple as can be. Such as: who starts? Golden State kicked off training camp on Monday in Hawaii, and that question is one that likely […]
Rumored Warriors free agent target headed to Italy
During the free agency waiting game this summer, many players were linked to the Golden State Warriors. While the Dubs ultimately went in a different direction, veteran center Kelly Olynyk was one name that came up in multiple reports. Now, it seems, Olynyk was unable to get an offer he wanted from an NBA team […]
Southeast Division watch: the Heat reloaded with Giannis, Klay
Let’s check out the Southeast Division Dub Nation, a spicy part of the NBA this year. Last season, the Warriors split two with Miami, and only one of them still stings. The Heat took the first one 110-96 in November, against a Golden State roster so short-handed it looked like a Santa Cruz scrimmage. Then […]
Atlantic Division watch: All hail the New York Knicks, world champs
Wellp we did it Dub Nation, we took a look at the entire Atlantic divison to start the season. And we end it with the champions. The Golden State Warriors went 1-1 against the New York Knicks last season, winning 126-113 at home in January and dropping a 110-107 game at the Garden in March. […]
Can Frank Vogel provide a jolt to Warriors’ lackluster defense?
The word on the street coming out of the islands is Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr spent the first day of camp in Laie, Hawaii, drilling transition defense. He called the live work controlled, with possessions going up and back maybe three times max. Let’s hope that live work translates because anybody who […]
Happy 24th birthday to Warriors rookie Yaxel Lendeborg
I’ve been in the Warriors birthday letter business for a minute now. I wrote Brandin Podziemski one when he turned 22, then another when he turned 23 and was ripping down 30 boards in two games like the ball owed him money. I wrote Jonathan Kuminga a whole armchair therapy session for his 23rd. So […]
Atlantic Division watch: New look 76ers may be LeBron’s last dance
Dub Nation, the Golden State Warriors went 0-2 against the Philadelphia 76ers last season. That Philly team had a young, springy energy through Tyrese Maxey and the rookie V.J. Edgecombe. Those two dudes were a two-headed monster that took turns giving the Warriors fits. Steph Curry missed both contests, and former MVP Joel Embiid played […]
Atlantic Division watch: The Nets are still looking for a way out
Let’s get it Dub Nation. As training camp begins and the Golden State Warriors are getting back into the swing of things, I’m continuing my review of what the rest of the NBA has done, division by division. We’re still in the Atlantic Division right now, and I’ve already covered the Boston Celtics and the […]
Did Steve Kerr finally get the young big he wanted in Yaxel Lendeborg?
When the Warriors lost their play-in game to the Suns 111-96 last season, the year ended at 37-45 and Steve Kerr walked into the postgame presser sounding like a man drafting his own farewell. “These jobs all have an expiration date,” he said; his contract had already hit one. I’m gonna defer to the legendary […]
Curry’s extension saved Warriors $20 million. Your move, Dunleavy
Media day at Chase Center is usually a fashion show with microphones. Guys roll in with fresh earrings and promises about being in the best shape of their lives, and we write it all down like we haven’t heard it every September since dial-up. Steph Curry walked in Monday with a new contract. Two years, […]
Brandin Podziemski was making waves at Warriors’ media day
If you’re a guard with the Golden State Warriors during the Stephen Curry era, you better know how to make a big splash. That means both knocking down pure jumpers from way downtown, and also making winning plays that get the fanbase behind you and wins up on the schedule. You make enough splashes and […]
Jimmy Butler updates on his rehab progress
At Golden State Warriors media day on September 28, 2026, the primary focus surrounding Jimmy Butler centered on his health recovery rather than his signature preseason theatrics. Butler, who missed the latter portion of last season following a torn ACL sustained in January, officially progressed to “very light on-court activities” ahead of training camp. The […]
Yaxel Lendeborg media day
Golden State Warriors rookie Yaxel Lendeborg turned heads with his infectious confidence and humor during NBA Media Day. The 11th overall draft pick reflected on his rapid adjustment to the professional level following an impressive Summer League campaign. Lendeborg expressed awe at playing alongside Stephen Curry, pointing out the gravity Curry commands on the court. […]
