Injury Report: Warriors vs. Thunder
The Golden State Warriors are hosting the OKC Thunder on Sunday night in what will be their first game since Steph Curry went down with a lower leg injury. The good news for the Warriors, is that Curry is their only major injury absence, with Andre Iguodala being the only other player ruled out for this game.
For the Thunder, they will be without Luguentz Dort, Chet Holmgren, and Aleksej Pokusevski. Their All-Star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander will be available, giving OKC the best player in this matchup without Steph Curry.
The Warriors are in a pivotal portion of their season right now. With Curry sidelined for multiple weeks, the Warriors must find a way to survive his absence. Currently tied with the 9th-seed New Orleans Pelicans, Golden State is not in a position to sustain a stretch of losses. One way or another, the team must find ways to win without Curry. This first game without him will be an important step towards establishing that positive momentum.
This game against the Thunder is crucial, because only one loss separates Golden State and OKC right now. The Thunder have their sights set on a playoff spot, and the Warriors are currently one of the teams in the way. Looking to climb up the standings, expect the Thunder to come out focused for this game against a Warriors team missing Steph Curry.
