The preseason rematch is set between the Warriors and Lakers as the squad travels down to Los Angeles for the second of their four exhibition games against their Southern California rival. The initial match-up did not go the Warriors’ way as they dropped their first game of the series 123-101. But after a 20-point win over the Minnesota Timberwolves (143-123) fueled by a Stephen Curry 40-point effort, the Dubs look to be back on track.
As the preseason continues for the Dubs, here are a few things to watch while the team plays on Monday night:

First-round draft pick Jordan Poole has continued his hot shooting from Summer League into the Dubs’ preseason thus far; he dropped 17 points against the Lakers in their first preseason matchup, then followed that up with a 19-point outing against the Timberwolves Thursday.
