KEY GAME INFORMATION
LA LAKERS: GUARDS: At 36 and coming off multiple injuries, it seems unlikely that vintage KOBE BRYANT will ever return. Still, he'll get to the line enough to be among the league's scoring leaders . . . JEREMY LIN will start and be useful when his streaky shot gets hot . . . NICK YOUNG demanded the Lakers re-sign him, and what Swaggy P wants, Swaggy P gets (after L.A. struck out on every free agent). He'll miss the first couple weeks of the season as he recovers from thumb surgery . . . XAVIER HENRY will try to establish himself as a deep threat off the bench . . . JORDAN CLARKSON is the kind of big guard they've paired with Bryant over the years. He could be a year or two away from contributing . . . STEVE NASH is out for the season with a back injury. He's likely played his last game as a member of the Lakers. FORWARDS: You know it's been a rough offseason when CARLOS BOOZER, who no contending team wanted, is your prize. He's still a zero at the defensive end, but Boozer can shoot from mid-range and could see more minutes in a thin L.A. frontcourt . . . WESLEY JOHNSON gives them a spot-up shooter on the wing who brings some defensive versatility . . . They'll probably pair Boozer and teenager JULIUS RANDLE together often. The rookie has drawn comparisons to Zach Randolph . . . RYAN KELLY is a serviceable stretch-4 for the second unit. CENTERS: JORDAN HILL will see time at the 4 and 5 spots. His per-minute rates are strong, but his stamina is not . . . C'mon, who doesn't like ED DAVIS? . . . The Lakers will likely use Boozer, Hill and Davis as undersized centers, because entering the year they only have lead-footed ROBERT SACRE as a true 5. He's not a candidate to play more than 20 minutes per night.
GOLDEN STATE: GUARDS: New head coach Steve Kerr doesn't figure to tweak this system much, so expect STEPHEN CURRY to keep doing his thing. He's added elite playmaking skills to his already outstanding deep shooting . . . The Warriors are reluctant to part with KLAY THOMPSON in part because of his three-point shooting, but mostly because of his defensive value alongside Curry . . . SHAUN LIVINGSTON will back up both guard spots. He's also the only proven point guard on the roster besides Curry . . . BRANDON RUSH will look to revive his career in Oakland. He'll have to prove his knees are healthy enough before he earns a rotation spot . . . It's a make or break year already for NEMANJA NEDOVIC, who was severely overmatched as a rookie. FORWARDS: ANDRE IGUODALA is a defensive specialist and no more than a role player on offense. His main job is to take some of the playmaking duties away from Curry . . . Kerr seems resigned to the fact that he's stuck with DAVID LEE. He has some value on offense, but remains one of the league's worst defensive frontcourt players. Expect him to lose some minutes under Kerr . . . HARRISON BARNES will play a bit of power forward in some small lineups, but mostly he'll play a wing spot. Barnes will have to regain his confidence early if he's going to be an impact sixth man . . . Kerr has hinted at a bigger role for DRAYMOND GREEN, who will play some stretch-4 this year . . . MARREESE SPEIGHTS gives them an offense-only big man off the bench. CENTERS: Kerr has hinted at a bigger offensive role for ANDREW BOGUT. But monitoring the Aussie's minutes may be the bigger goal, to ensure he's actually available for the postseason . . . Back-up center FESTUS EZELI should be ready to return from his knee injury, though he was having shin problems during Summer League.

*Lakers-Warriors Preview* =========================

By NOEY KUPCHAN STATS Writer

Los Angeles (0-2) at Golden State (1-0), 10:30 p.m. EDT

Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors opened the season with an easy victory. They would appear to have another favorable matchup against the winless Los Angeles Lakers, who are on the verge of their worst start since moving west.

Set to open their home schedule, the Warriors try to extend the Lakers' woes as these Pacific Division foes meet Saturday night.

Curry racked up 24 points, 10 rebounds, five assists and six steals as Golden State got by Sacramento 95-77 on Wednesday. The Warriors held the Kings to 30.8 percent shooting and forced 27 turnovers, making Steve Kerr a winner in his coaching debut.

"First game, get the first win, that was great. Let's try to get 57 more," said Draymond Green, who had 12 points and 10 rebounds. "Coach has been great, you want to go out there and play hard for him. He's been great with us, he came in and tried to build relationships and really get to know guys. It was important to get him that first win."

Los Angeles (0-3) is still seeking its first victory after getting outscored by an average of 15.0 points in its first three games. The Lakers haven't dropped their first four since opening a franchise-worst 0-7 in 1957-58, when the team was located in Minneapolis.

Los Angeles hung tough against the Clippers but couldn't keep up down the stretch in Friday's 118-111 defeat. Jordan Hill scored 23 points for the Lakers, who went 20 of 28 from the foul line while the Clippers were 38 of 44.

Kobe Bryant finished with 21 after scoring four and shooting 1 of 7 in the fourth quarter.

"We all know he can knock those down," coach Byron Scott said of Bryant, who's averaging 23.7 points. "Those are shots we'd love for him to have again."

Bryant is averaging 30.7 points against the Warriors since the start of 2000-01 for his third-highest mark against any team during that time.

Golden State outscored Los Angeles by an average of 15.0 points in taking three of four meetings last season, claiming its first season series against the Lakers since going 3-2 in 1994-95. Klay Thompson scored a career-high 38 points in a 125-94 victory Oct. 30, and Curry had 30, 10 rebounds and 12 assists in a 112-95 road win April 11.

The Warriors just locked Thompson up through the 2018-19 season on Friday with a four-year extension worth a reported $70 million. Thompson, who scored 19 points against the Kings, made 223 3-pointers last season to finish second in the league behind Curry's 261.

"We're excited to have one of the top young players in the NBA under contract for the next several years," general manager Bob Myers said. "Our ownership group continues to demonstrate the commitment necessary to build a championship caliber team and we anticipate that Klay Thompson will play a major role in our future success and accomplishments."

Thompson was 15 of 31 from 3-point range in the four games against the Lakers last season while Curry made 10 of 19 from beyond the arc. The two will look to take advantage of facing a Los Angeles team that is allowing opponents to knock down 42.6 percent (40 of 94) of their 3s.

Golden State's David Lee (hamstring) and Brandon Rush (back) are both uncertain to be available after missing the first game.

The Warriors haven't opened 2-0 since 2010-11.
