TRAGEDY: Stephen Curry announce his wife Ayesha Disa Curry committed suicide yesterday evening in a heartbreaking statement…

LAIE, Hawaii — Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr has a very open-ended question he is hoping to answer throughout training camp: Who is going to be in his starting lineup?

 

There is an obvious opening at the shooting guard position — a job formerly occupied by Klay Thompson. But there are other opportunities as well; Kerr has said that all but Stephen Curry and Draymond Green’s starting jobs are up for grabs

“There is competition across the board,” Kerr said Tuesday following the Warriors’ first session at BYU Hawai’i’s campus. “It’s not as simple as, ‘Who is going to be the 2?’ It’s got to be — ‘Who is going to be the 5? Who’s the 4?’ We know that Steph is the 1. But what’s the combination?”

 

Searching for lineup combinations was a season-long struggle for Kerr and the Warriors in 2023-24. Golden State used 27 different starting lineups, and none for more than a handful of games in a row.

 

Part of it was dependent on who was available, but more so because the group was not cohesive. With the revolving starting group, the bench unit also struggled to find cohesion. Kerr said all of that will be part of the conversation at camp.
