Overview

  • ESPN and Shams Charania report Golden State is expected to be without Curry (left ankle), Butler (illness) and Green (rest) for Friday’s Prime Video game against Oklahoma City.
  • Green has been ruled out for rest, Butler is listed out with an illness, and Curry is listed as questionable after tweaking his left ankle late in Wednesday’s win at Charlotte.
  • Curry said the ankle felt fine postgame, but the Warriors are proceeding cautiously given his prior ankle history and a packed stretch of games.
  • The official injury report also lists De’Anthony Melton as questionable, Al Horford and Trayce Jackson-Davis as probable, and Seth Curry and L.J. Cryer as out.
  • The matchup opens a home back-to-back, the league’s star participation policy applies to this national telecast, and the Warriors hope to have their stars available against Utah.
