Golden State Warriors forward Kevin Durant (left hand contusion) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Brooklyn Nets.
Durant hurt his hand on Thursday but after getting x-rays during the game he eventually returned and had a strong performance for the Dubs. Considering this game is against the Nets, this could be the Warriors playing it safe with their superstar. Andre Iguodala should gain a lot of minutes with Durant out, while Klay Thompson and Stephen Curry should get a nice bump in usage.
Our models project Iguodala for 9.1 points, 5.4 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 1.3 steals over 33.5 minutes on Saturday.
