It is a rematch between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Golden State Warriors that figured in the league's first-ever play-in tournament.
Two teams balancing early-season transitions and late-season title aspirations share the national spotlight Tuesday, October 19 on NBA Opening Night when the Golden State Warriors visit the Los Angeles Lakers.
Much has changed since the night when James put up a 22-point, 11-rebound, 10-assist triple-double, which was barely enough to offset a 37-point night by Golden State's Stephen Curry. The Warriors return six of the eight who got minutes in the season-ending loss, but still are without All-Star guard Klay Thompson, who continues to rehab an Achilles injury that cost him the entire 2021 season, and big man James Wiseman, who is close to returning from a torn meniscus in his knee.
Curry hit 17 of his 42 from deep in his four games, but that wasn't even the most encouraging part for the Warriors. Jordan Poole hit 16 treys over five games, while newcomers Otto Porter Jr. and Nemanja Bjelica combined to make 24 in 47 attempts.
