Klay Thompson resting Thursday in Warriors' back-to-back
Golden State Warriors guard/forward Klay Thompson (right Achilles tendon injury management) is out for Thursday versus the Denver Nuggets.
Thompson will sit out the second leg of the Warriors' back-to-back and he might be joined by Stephen Curry (shoulder) and Draymond Green (foot). Andrew Wiggins and Jordan Poole should have more shots available on Thursday and there will be additional minutes for Donte DiVincenzo and Jonathan Kuminga.
Kuminga is averaging 26.9 minutes and 20.4 FanDuel points per game when Klay is inactive this season. He has a $4,400 FanDuel salary on Thursday's seven-game slate. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Warriors’ implied total (109.75) is No. 10 out of 14 active teams today.
