After returning from a 27-game absence on Sunday, Stephen Curry (knee) is listed as probable for Tuesday’s game against the Kings. <\/p>\n
The Warriors also list LJ Cryer (illness) as probable, while Kristaps Porzingis (knee) is questionable. <\/p>\n
Among the Warriors players ruled out, Gui Santos (pelvic contusion) is the headliner. He’ll miss his second game in the last seven days with the injury. <\/p>\n
Al Horford will miss his 13th straight game with a calf strain, but he’s trending in the right direction. According to ClutchPoints’ Kenzo Fukuda<\/a>, Horford played three-on-three on Monday. <\/p>\n Quinten Post will miss his fourth straight game with a foot injury. <\/p>\n The Kings have eight players ruled out Tuesday. <\/p>\n They are Zach LaVine (finger), Russell Westbrook (toe), Domantas Sabonis (knee), Keegan Murray (ankle), De’Andre Hunter (eye), Drew Eubanks (thumb), Patrick Baldwin Jr. (on G League assignment) and Isaiah Stevens (on G League assignment). <\/p>\n DeMar DeRozan (hamstring) is questionable. <\/p>\n Curry Update<\/p>\n Curry came off the bench on Sunday and played 26 minutes. Steve Kerr addressed what the rest of the week could look like. <\/p>\n “I haven’t talked about what the number is, but we’ve talked about just the idea that there needs to be a ramp up this week,” Kerr told reporters <\/a>Monday. ” … The idea is he’ll be in the starting lineup before long. Can he play enough minutes to space it out accordingly where he’s not sitting for too long stretches?”<\/p>\n Kerr added: “We’d like to bump those minutes up if we can. It’s just going to be a process.”<\/p>\n Expect Curry to come off the bench and play about 25 minutes again on Tuesday. The Warriors can look to get him more minutes later this week.<\/p>\n Warriors’ Super-Small Lineup Worth Experimenting with Again<\/p>\n With Santos out, the Warriors will have to play small lineups on Tuesday. <\/p>\n They had one small lineup that thrived on Sunday against the Rockets. <\/p>\n The Stephen Curry, De’Anthony Melton, Brandin Podziemski, Gary Payton II and Draymond Green lineup was a plus-nine in five minutes against Houston, per NBA.com<\/a>. <\/p>\n The quintet thrived offensively, going 7-of-9 from the floor and 3-of-4 from three with five assists and no turnovers. <\/p>\n
