Golden State’s Summer League roster will feature UNLV product Patrick McCaw, the 38th pick in last week’s NBA Draft who the Warriors acquired in a draft-night trade, and center Ognjen Kuzmic, a member of the Warriors’ 2015 NBA Championship team who played professionally this past season in Greece. Damian Jones, the Warriors’ first round pick (#30) in last week’s draft, will not see any action at Summer League due to a recent pectoral injury and surgery.
Fresh off their second consecutive trip to the NBA Finals, the Warriors will open the Summer League slate against the San Antonio Spurs on Saturday, July 9 (7:30 p.m.) in a game that will be televised live on ESPN2. Following the opener, Golden State is set to face the Los Angeles Lakers on Monday, July 11 (7:30 p.m.), which will be televised live on ESPN, and the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday, July 12 (5:30 p.m.), which will be live-streamed on ESPN3 and the WatchESPN app.
Following those three preliminary round games, the NBA Summer League once again features a tournament-style schedule that will culminate in the crowning of an NBA Summer League Champion on Monday, July 18. Each team is guaranteed to play at least five games, with the two teams that reach the Championship Game playing as many as eight contests. The Warriors captured the inaugural Summer League Championship in 2013 and have amassed more wins at the annual event in Las Vegas than any other team, holding an all-time Vegas Summer League record of 34-19 (.642).
ESPN will present all 67 games from Las Vegas across ESPN, ESPN2, ESPN3, ESPNU and WatchESPN. In total, ESPN, ESPN2 and ESPNU will broadcast 25 games, including all four quarterfinal games, both semifinal games and the Championship Game. Fans can also log on to ESPN3, where all 67 games will be live-streamed. NBA TV will also present a full slate of Samsung NBA Summer League action, televising a total of 30 games. Additionally, all of Golden State’s Summer League games can be heard on an audio-only stream on warriors.com and on the Warriors Mobile App.
