The NBA's Golden State Warriors and Los Angeles Clippers are set to hold their respective preseason training camps on O‘ahu at the end of September, culminating with an exhibition game at the University of Hawai‘i's Stan Sheriff Center on Oct. 4.

The Warriors will practice daily at BYU-Hawai‘i's Cannon Activities Center daily from Tuesday, Sept. 29 through Saturday, Oct. 3.

Meanwhile, the Clippers will practice on UH-Mānoa's campus, also from Tuesday to Saturday.

Both teams will then meet in an Oct. 4 exhibition at the Stan Sheriff Center, with tipoff set for 1 p.m.

For the Warriors, the trip to the North Shore will be their sixth overall and most recent since 2024. The Warriors have played a total of 14 preseason games in Hawai‘i since 1974.

The 2026-2027 season will mark the sixth time the Clippers have held training camp, all of which have been since 2017.

The Warriors have seven NBA championships, including four in the last dozen seasons (2015, 2017, 2018, 2022), appearing in the NBA Finals six times in that span. Meanwhile, the Clippers have only been to the Conference Finals once in their history, advancing to the Western Conference Finals in 2021.

Tickets for the exhibition game between the Warriors and Clippers on Oct. 4 will go on sale online at Ticketmaster.com.
