Even if Steve Kerr and Stephen Curry believe that the Warriors can beat anyone in the playoffs, they will first have to qualify, and for that, they will have to be able to count on the executives. Which is clearly not easy since last night, against the Wizards, they finished the match without Stephen Curry or Draymond Green, who were out injured.
For the first, it's once again a story of ankles. The leader of the Warriors twisted his left ankle, and he returned to the locker room one minute from the end of the match. ” Everything is fine. See you on Monday,” he told journalists. Optimism confirmed by Steve Kerr, who should therefore count on him against the Celtics on Monday evening. “Steph told me he didn’t think it was serious” shares Warriors coachwho also knows that his leader is playing with knee pain and an injury to his right thumb.
The Celtics are coming…
On the other hand, for Green, it is more worrying. The All-Star midfielder had just missed three matches due to various problems in his back and calf, and it was precisely the pain in his left calf that awoke in the first half. To the point that the staff asked him to have an MRI.
“For the moment, both are on 'day-to-day', but we don't really know about Green. We'll have to wait, and find out tomorrow what the MRI says.” Kerr explains. “We will evaluate it over the next couple of days and determine what to do next.” »
A priori, Green will not be in uniform Monday evening for the visit of the Celtics, as part of MLK Day. Remember that the Warriors are already without Jonathan Kuminga, Brandin Podziemski and last night, Kyle Anderson was also missing.
