Golden State Warriors forward Andre Iguodala broke his nose during Thursday's game, but is not expected to miss any action.

Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said Iguodala was injured during the team’s 120-105 preseason victory over the Los Angeles Lakers. Kerr said Iguodala, who scored seven points in 16 minutes against Los Angeles, might wear a mask.

Iguodala averaged 9.3 points, 4.7 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 1.51 steals in 63 games last season for Golden State, who lost in the first round of the NBA playoffs in seven games to the Los Angeles Clippers. He is entering his second season with the Warriors after signing a four-year, $48 million contract in 2013.
