It all starts with Media Day. Before Opening Night, before the first preseason game and even before the first pair of sneakers squeak on the practice court during training camp, there is Media Day. This year’s event, presented by Kaiser Permanente, starts at 11 a.m. on Monday, and will serve as the first official team gathering of the 2016-17 season.

The traditional aspects of Media Day will always be there: photo shoots, recording of promotional materials for local and national media outlets and player interviews. But what makes Media Day fun for all of Dub Nation is the players, and more specifically the players on social media. Several Warriors players, who by the way will be in full uniform, will take over the team’s official social media accounts for a portion of the day, and this year, for the first time ever, the Warriors will host live streaming programing exclusively on Facebook.

Starting at approximately 11:30 a.m., Warriors Live, presented by Zoom, will stream live on the Warriors' official Facebook page. The program will be hosted by Warriors TV’s Laurence Scott and radio broadcaster Tim Roye, and the event will include live interviews with Warriors players, a look at the season ahead and much more fun.

How can fans get involved in Media Day? It’s simple. Join the conversation using the hashtag #GSWMediaDay, or post a question for a player on Twitter or Instagram using the hashtag #AskTheDubs, and be on the lookout for answers on Monday. And if you record your question via video, you just might be featured on the Warriors scoreboard this season.

Submit your ?s for the Dubs by posting a video with #AskTheDubs, then tune in to #GSWMediaDay on Monday to see if it's answered — GoldenStateWarriors (@warriors) September 24, 2016

Whether you’re an active participant in Media Day or just following along on social, the event promises to be fun and entertaining. And the best thing about it is that it marks the start of a new season, as training camp officially tips off the next day.
