Losing Klay Thompson is tough, but the Warriors added players such as Buddy Hield, Kyle Anderson and De'Anthony Melton, who are expected to make up a lot of the lost production.

They will play their first game of the 2024-25 regular season when they visit the Portland Trail Blazers on October 23 in Oregon.

That said, the Warriors were the tenth seed in the Western Conference with a 46-36 record (they missed the NBA playoffs after losing to the Sacramento Kings in the play-in tournament).
