Warriors Cup Games 2026: free shirts for Lakers and Kings nights at Chase Center

SAN FRANCISCO — Oct. 15, 2026 — The Golden State Warriors have set the game-night plan for their two Emirates NBA Cup home dates at Chase Center, and the first one comes fast: the Lakers visit on Friday, Oct. 30, at 7 p.m. Pacific, only 10 days into the regular season. The club calls the home Cup nights “Warriors Cup Games,” and tickets for both are on sale now through the team.

Every fan in the building for the Lakers game gets a custom Warriors Cup Games shirt, courtesy of CarMax. The same giveaway returns for the second home Cup game against the Sacramento Kings on Wednesday, Nov. 25, the night before Thanksgiving.

Alternating-color shirts, a Chase Center first

The shirts are not one color. For the first time at Chase Center, alternating sections will get different shirts in the grey and blue of the Warriors’ NBA Cup court, so the stands contrast with the Statement Edition uniforms the team wears in Cup games. The Warriors say fans at both home Group Play games will also get a heightened in-game show and limited-edition giveaways.

The court itself is part of the look. All Cup Group Play and Quarterfinal games are played on team-specific floors, and Golden State’s design puts the Cup trophy at center court and in the lanes, in colors picked to contrast with the Statement jerseys.

Warriors Cup schedule: West Group C

Date	Game	Arena	Fan note
Fri., Oct. 30	Lakers at Warriors, 7 p.m. PT	Chase Center, San Francisco	Free Warriors Cup Games shirt for every fan
Fri., Nov. 13	Warriors at Spurs	San Antonio	First Cup road game
Wed., Nov. 25	Kings at Warriors	Chase Center, San Francisco	Second shirt giveaway
Fri., Nov. 27	Warriors at Trail Blazers	Portland	Group Play finale

That gives Golden State a group with three West rivals it knows well, Los Angeles, Sacramento and Portland, plus Victor Wembanyama’s Spurs on the road in mid-November.

What comes after Group Play

Eight teams advance to the Quarterfinals on Friday, Dec. 4, and Saturday, Dec. 5. The Semifinals are played in NBA team markets on Tuesday, Dec. 8, and Wednesday, Dec. 9, and the Championship is Friday, Dec. 11, at Hinkle Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. The 22 teams that do not reach the Quarterfinals each pick up two extra regular-season games, one home and one away, between Dec. 6 and Dec. 10.

How to buy and what it costs

The Warriors sell tickets for both Cup home games through the team’s official site and by phone at 1-888-GSW-HOOP. The club uses all-in pricing, so the first price you see while browsing already includes every service fee, with nothing added at checkout. Resale runs through the team’s Ticketmaster marketplace, which the Warriors describe as the only verified resale market guaranteed by the organization, and single-game suites are sold through Suite Experience Group.

For a Friday-night Lakers visit early in the season, expect that game to be the pricier of the two; the Wednesday Kings game before Thanksgiving is the more likely value pick for a family that wants the shirt and the Cup court without paying Lakers prices.
