The Golden State Warriors play three preseason games at Chase Center in October 2026: the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday, October 6 at 7pm, the Sacramento Kings on Saturday, October 10 at 5:30pm, and the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday, October 16 at 7pm.
What to Expect
The dates come from the team’s home preseason announcement, reported the same day by the San Francisco Chronicle. Preseason rosters rotate heavily and starters often play limited minutes, which is why these tickets tend to cost less than regular-season games. Stephen Curry returns for his 18th NBA season, and rookie Yaxel Lendeborg, who led the team to the NBA Summer League title in July, joins the roster.
Tickets for all three games went on sale in July through the Warriors’ site and Ticketmaster. The regular season had not been scheduled at the time of the announcement; the Chronicle reported it was likely to begin the week of October 18.
Thrive City, the plaza outside the arena, is open on game days with its restaurants and bars. It also hosts the free Thrill-O-Ween afternoon on October 24.
