PORTLAND — Bob Myers and Steve Kerr are anxious to see the squad they’ve assembled in action, and while it will be months before the full-strength Warriors are on display, they’ll get their first look Monday night.

Golden State tips off its preseason in Portland at 7 p.m. Monday (NBATV, 95.7 FM).

Asked how he’ll measure success, Kerr quipped, “By height,” a reference from the movie ‘Caddyshack.’

“We’ve had five practices now, put in a couple of concepts, a few side out-of-bounds, talked a lot about how we want to play offense,” he continued. “I want to see how much guys have picked up on the offensive side. I think defensively, I want to see a tight shell. I want to see the basics. Don’t give up the easy stuff. That’s the whole game.”

How do the rookies look?

Jonathan Kuminga and Moses Moody, the Warriors’ pair of rookie lottery picks, get their first chance to display what has garnered praise from Kerr and teammates during the first week of training camp.

It is also their first chance to see how they gel in the Warriors’ system in game action.

Kuminga has excited Kerr with an offensive acumen beyond his age (which, remember, is 18 until Oct. 6 — a happy early 19th birthday to young Jonathan). In transition, Kerr compared him to a freight train. He could play his way into more minutes.

“The fact that he’s a willing and capable passer changes things, I think, in terms of his outlook,” Kerr said. “The key for him is going to be playing defense, picking up our schemes, coverages, tendencies of his opponents, all that kind of stuff.”

Moody could help fill the temporary hole left at shooting guard by the injured Klay Thompson if he’s able to grasp Golden State’s defensive system and prove he can knock down the outside shot. Kerr has mentioned Trevor Ariza’s “3-and-D” style as a comparison.

“Defense is what gets you on the floor, then once your offense gets going, that’s what keeps you there,” Moody said.

How much do the starters play?

The Warriors’ rotations for Monday night were still up in the air after practice Sunday. Kerr said the coaching staff would discuss the plan on their flight to Portland.

Golden State’s starters — Stephen Curry, Andrew Wiggins, Draymond Green, Kevon Looney — should see about the usual preseason 20 minutes, Kerr said, though Green could be slightly more limited; he arrived at training camp Thursday.

“Usually Steph manages to talk himself into a few extra minutes,” Kerr added.

The Warriors will have 16 of the 20 players on their training camp roster available: James Wiseman (meniscus), Klay Thompson (Achilles), Gary Payton II (hernia) and Jordan Bell (excused absence).

Small ball

The Warriors want to space the floor more than ever this year. That means building a lineup around the best floor-spacer in NBA history and potentially pairing him with three other sharpshooters.

Kevon Looney will anchor the 5 spot for the Warriors, but the plan is to deploy a similar small ball strategy that helped them end last season on a 15-5 run — the best record in the league over the final 20 games — with the NBA’s top-rated defense.

Draymond Green will also see extensive time at the 5, but what other lineups will the Warriors role out?

Kerr said he wants to have four shooters on the floor. With newly added Otto Porter Jr. and Nemanja Bjelica, the Warriors can do that without sacrificing size. Kuminga should also get looks at the 4 and the 5.

“When we say small ball, it doesn’t necessarily mean small,” Kerr said. “It means more space, more shooting.”

Wiggins effect

There was discussion about how the Warriors will approach the preseason with the possibility of their starting small forward missing all of their home games, but Andrew Wiggins put that to rest when he got his shot this week.

Wiggins will play Monday and won’t have to worry about the vaccine again.

The Warriors are glad the saga is behind them.

“He told me today that he’s fine with us acknowledging it,” Kerr said, “and that’ll be the end of it.”
