The Warriors took their first step towards said potential title Tuesday night.

The Warriors' TV channel social media account took a jab at Lakers superstar forward LeBron James after the season opening win.

LeBron James is out with an injury on the opening night of the season.

Durant, 37, reportedly signed a two-year extension worth $90 million with the team on Sunday and the move to acquire the 15-time NBA All-Star hints that the franchise is all-in this season.

When speaking to the media during his postgame news conference, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr praised Butler's performance against JJ Redick team. Kerr likened Butler's calming presence to that of former Warriors forward Andre Iguodala, who helped secure four championships during his tenure in the Bay Area.

Jimmy Butler scored 31 points, Stephen Curry added 23 and the Golden State Warriors overcame Luka Doncic's 43-point performance to beat the Los Angeles Lakers 119-109 on Tuesday night in both teams' s...

“He’s been a dream to coach,” Kerr said. “Every day he communicates with me and we couldn’t be happier with what he’s brought us in terms of that leadership, and veteran influence in the locker room.”

Despite his well-documented standoff with the Golden State Warriors over the summer, Jonathan Kuminga found himself in Steve Kerr's starting lineup against the Los Angeles Lakers. Kuminga repaid that faith by producing a high-level performance on both sides of the floor, even though he had the difficult task of trying to contain Luka Doncic.

Several former NBA stars shared their predictions for the upcoming season, including quite a bold one for Kuminga and the Warriors.

“It honestly feels like kuminga might finally take that leap this year. He might be the most important part of the dubs this season,” @DanielP_49 added.
