Warriors Face Pelicans Short-Staffed While Chasing Eighth Straight Win

Golden State's official injury report lists four players out with one probable, creating a depth test before a five-game road trip.

Overview

  • The New Orleans Pelicans visit the Warriors at Chase Center for a 7:00 p.m. PT tipoff on Monday with TV on NBC Sports Bay Area and NBA TV.
  • Golden State's official injury report lists Jimmy Butler, Moses Moody, Kristaps Porziņģis and Will Richard out and Gui Santos probable, forcing the team to adjust its rotation.
  • Reports say Porziņģis is not currently with the team and that his locker was cleared, a developing trade-related detail that has not been confirmed as a transaction.
  • Observers noted Jimmy Butler working out in full uniform before last Saturday's game, which sources call a sign his ACL rehab is progressing but not a confirmed return date.
  • The Warriors ride a seven-game winning streak that has flipped their season narrative, and the depleted roster will be tested as they start a five-game road trip after Monday's game.
