Draymond Green Considered Questionable Against Cavaliers
Golden State Warriors forward/center Draymond Green (knee) has picked up a questionable tag on Friday for their contest against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The former Defensive Player of the Year hasn't missed a game yet this year and has anchored one of the best defenses in the league again. A lot of his numbers are down in his 13th season, but his all-around skills are still conducive to category leagues. If Green can't play, Trayce Jackson-Davis, Kevon Looney, and Kyle Anderson will all see some extra minutes.
Golden State Warriors forward/center Draymond Green (knee) has received the green light to play in Friday's game against Utah. Following a good all-around effort in Wednesday's season opener against Portland, Green landed on the injury report ahead of Friday with a left knee contusion. However, the team has upgraded him from questionable to available. Green had eight points, six rebounds, three assists, two steals, and one block in just 20 minutes in Wednesday's blowout win. He should contribute even more on Friday night against the Jazz, as a competitive game is expected in Salt Lake City.
Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against Utah. The veteran sustained a left knee contusion in Wednesday's blowout win over the Blazers. However, he still had a decent showing, amassing eight points, six boards, two blocks, and one steal. With Stephen Curry (hip) also questionable, the Warriors may need to rely on Andrew Wiggins, Jonathan Kuminga, Buddy Hield, and Brandin Podziemski to lead the way offensively. Kyle Anderson, who had two points, five boards, two steals, and a block versus Portland, could also work his way into the starting lineup if Green can't get on the floor.
Draymond Green "Probably Got Two More" Seasons Left
Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green has been instrumental to the team's success over the years. It's known his career is nearing an end. Yet, he added some clarity recently, stating during an interview he's "probably got two more" seasons left before he hangs it up. The 34-year-old has spent his entire career with the Warriors since entering the National Basketball Association, averaging 8.7 points, 7.0 rebounds, 5.6 assists, 1.3 steals, and 1.0 blocks. He's also a four-time All-Star, four-time NBA champion, and the 2017 Defensive Player of the Year. Without question, Green has a Hall of Fame resume. While he should have more than a few quality showings for fantasy managers on the horizon, his days of consistent production are likely over, even with Klay Thompson now in Dallas.
Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (knee) is listed as probable ahead of Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. The veteran forward sat out alongside guard Klay Thompson (knee) during Thursday's contest. However, head coach Steve Kerr mentioned beforehand that both players should be active for Friday. The return of Green should push Jonathan Kuminga out of the starting five. Kuminga won't have as strong of streaming appeal while playing off the bench. Fantasy managers should double check that status of Green and Thompson ahead of tip-off.
Golden State Warriors forward/center Draymond Green (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's meeting with the Trail Blazers. The team has downgraded him from questionable to out as Green is dealing with a right knee contusion. He shouldn't miss a lot of time and could be back on Friday as Golden State completes a back-to-back against New Orleans. With Green out on Thursday, Jonathan Kuminga has a chance to go berserk against a weak frontcourt, with extra minutes also available for Trayce Jackson-Davis and Andrew Wiggins.
Golden State Warriors forward/center Draymond Green (knee) has been listed as questionable for Thursday's matchup against Portland. The four-time All-Star made an early exit on Sunday against Utah due to an apparent back problem, and he's now on the injury report with a knee contusion. Jonathan Kuminga and Trayce Jackson-Davis have the most to gain from a fantasy perspective if Green can't play on Thursday. This is a favorable matchup for Golden State's big men against a bad rebounding team that struggles on the defensive end.
Golden State Warriors forward/center Draymond Green didn't finish Sunday's contest against Utah due to an apparent back injury. He spent only 21 minutes on the court, contributing three points, three rebounds, three assists, two steals, and one block. Golden State returns to action on Tuesday against the Lakers, and it's unclear if Green will be in the lineup. Jonathan Kuminga, who returned to action with a nice 21-point, 10-rebound double-double on Sunday, would benefit from Green's absence. There might be a few extra minutes of playing time coming in Trayce Jackson-Davis' direction as well.
Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (back) is considered probable for Friday night against the Indiana Pacers. The veteran has been able to play in each one of the last three games and he'll extend that streak to four. All of the starters should be healthy for this matchup and the Warriors have a lot of ground to make up if they want to avoid the play-in tournament. Green hasn't been much of a help in the scoring department lately, but over the last three games he's averaging 10.7 rebounds, 8.3 assists, and 1.0 steals per game. He remains a must-start in average or bigger fantasy leagues,
Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (back) will play on Wednesday against Memphis. The veteran recently admitted he's battling a back issue, seemingly indicating there's a chance he could miss some games moving ahead. There's also the potential of a premature absence if the back injury flares up during the contest. But Green has averaged just 8.8 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 6.0 assists this season, all down from the 2022-23 campaign, which should be a bigger deterrent for fantasy managers. That said, Green's availability will at least be enough to keep Kevon Looney off the floor.
