Overview

• Horford logged 14 minutes in his first Warriors appearance, posting 3 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 blocks in a 111-103 win over the Lakers.
• Stephen Curry praised Horford as a high-IQ, championship-caliber fit who provides spacing, defense and early "unspoken chemistry."
• Kerr started a small group of Curry, Brandin Podziemski, Moses Moody, Jimmy Butler and Green, but stressed this will not mean heavy center minutes for Green.
• Golden State experimented with a two-big look featuring Horford and Quinten Post, with Kerr highlighting the size, shooting and passing those pairings add.
• Moses Moody led all scorers with 19 points on 7-of-9 shooting, while Podziemski’s return from offseason core and wrist surgeries reinforces backcourt depth.
