Gui Santos Set to Serve Bench Role in Golden State Warriors Preseason Opener

Golden State Warriors forward Gui Santos will come off the bench in Sunday's preseason opener against the Clippers, with rookie Yaxel Lendeborg and veteran Al Horford starting in place of injured stars Jimmy Butler (knee) and Kristaps Porzingis. Santos remains in contention for starting duties later this preseason as head coach mixes lineups. Last season, Santos averaged 14.8 points, 5.6 rebounds, 3.6 assists, and 1.2 steals in 30 starts for Golden State.
