Draymond Green<\/a> could be forced to sit out the Golden State Warriors<\/a>\u2019 game against the Los Angeles Clippers<\/a> on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Green has been a steady force for the Warriors of late as the team deals with a myriad of injuries. The former Defensive Player of the Year has not missed a game since March 15, suiting up in multiple back-to-back games across the past month.<\/p>\n

In Saturday\u2019s 124-118 loss to the Sacramento Kings<\/a>, Green registered seven points, four rebounds, six assists, a steal and one three-pointer in 24 minutes of action.<\/p>\n

He is now in danger of missing Golden State\u2019s final game of the regular season.<\/p>\n

The Warriors have submitted their injury report for Sunday\u2019s matchup against the Clippers, in which Green’s name has popped up. Golden State announced that the 36-year-old veteran is officially questionable to play<\/a> due to left low back injury management.<\/p>\n

It does not sound like Green has sustained a new injury. Based on his designation, it appears that the Warriors are giving the four-time All-Star the night off in their last regular-season game of the year. <\/p>\n

The good news for the Warriors is that Steph Curry<\/a>will play against L.A<\/a>. The former back-to-back MVP tweaked his right ankle against the Kings, but this will not prevent him from suiting up in the season finale.<\/p>\n

The Warriors have locked the No. 10 seed in the Western Conference. They will face either the Clippers or the Portland Trail Blazers<\/a> (both teams currently have the same record) in the first round of the play-in tournament.<\/p>\n

Golden State will need to win two games \u2014 both of which will be on the road \u2014 in the play-in in order to secure the No. 8 seed in the NBA<\/a> playoffs.<\/p>\n
