For the eighth consecutive season, every regular-season Golden State Warriors game will be available on television, the team announced today.
CSN Bay Area, the exclusive television home for Warriors games in Northern California, will televise a total of 72 contests during the 2016-17 campaign, beginning with the team’s preseason game against the Los Angeles Lakers at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on Saturday, October 15.

For the 20th consecutive season, the Emmy Award-winning announcing team will have play-by-play announcer Bob Fitzgerald and 32-year veteran analyst Jim Barnett calling the action on all CSN Bay Area telecasts, with Ros Gold-Onwude handling sideline reporter duties. CSN Bay Area provides extensive game day coverage with one-hour Warriors Pregame Live and Warriors Postgame Live; season-long, comprehensive Warriors and NBA news, analysis and insider reports on SportsNet Central, SportsTalk Live and Warriors Central, a monthly half-hour magazine-style show; and in-depth 24/7 online coverage on CSNBayArea.com.
