Warriors game day: How will rotation look in final preseason game?
How will rotation look in final preseason game?
Trail Blazers (preseason game)
Steve Kerr, 3rd season with Warriors (140-24 with Warriors and overall); Terry Stotts, 5th season with Trail Blazers (182-146 with Trail Blazers and 297-314 overall)
Trail Blazers injury report: C Festus Ezeli (knee) is out.
In the Warriors’ final preseason game, head coach Steve Kerr will unveil a substitution pattern similar to what he’ll run in the regular-season opener Tuesday.
Kevin Durant and Stephen Curry are staggered; David West is (usually) the first big man off the bench; Zaza Pachulia plays the least of the starters; guards Ian Clark and Patrick McCaw are the ninth and 10th men, respectively.
The Warriors have lived up to the hype early, rattling off five wins in a row after losing their preseason opener to Toronto.
In front of a home crowd, can the Warriors give another glimpse of just how dominant they could be?
Will anyone make a final case for a rotation spot?
When the regular season arrives, Kerr will largely stick with his 10-man rotation.
Young players like Kevon Looney and James Michael McAdoo, who received playing time in the preseason, could struggle to earn minutes.
