Warriors' Draymond Green dealing with ankle sprain
Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green said the left ankle sprain he suffered during Sunday's game wasn't "too bad," per head coach Steve Kerr.
What It Means:
Green was held out of the second half but the game had already been decided. He will have Monday and Tuesday to heal before the Warriors open a back-to-back on Wednesday against the Portland Trail Blazers. Juan Toscano-Anderson and Eric Paschall will benefit if the Warriors decide to hold Green out through the All-Star break.
Draymond is averaging 50.3 FanDuel points over his last three healthy games and has scored over 40 in four of his last six healthy appearances. Steph Curry leads the Warriors with an 3.0 percent usage increase when Draymond isn't on the court this season.
