Gary Payton II Feeling Good About His Health

Golden State Warriors guard Gary Payton II expressed optimism about his health during Warriors Media Day. Before taking any questions, the 31-year-old stated, "Yes. I plan on being available this year. I feel good, healthy. Body's feeling great." Payton II appeared in 44 games last season and just 22 contests during the 2022-2023 season. Staying healthy has been a challenge for the defensive specialist, but when on the court, Golden State values his toughness and defensive prowess. He will provide depth at guard, coming off the bench for the team.

Gary Payton II Opts Into His Player Option To Return To Golden State

ESPN NBA reporter Kendra Andrews has reported that point Gary Payton II has chosen to remain in Golden State with the Warriors after opting into his $9.1 million player option for next year. The 31-year-old guard averaged 5.5 points and 2.6 rebounds while shooting 56.3% from the field this past season. However, his health remains a concern. Payton only played in 44 games as several injuries forced him to be sidelined. He missed games in November and December with a calf strain, and then a hamstring strain cost him time in January and February. The Warriors hope to get more production from Payton moving forward.

Gary Payton II Out Again On Tuesday

Golden State Warriors guard Gary Payton II (calf) won't suit up for Tuesday's Play-In meeting with the Sacramento Kings. The 31-year-old missed the final three contests of the regular season because of a strained calf. With that in mind, Payton only averaged 5.5 points and 2.6 rebounds throughout the 2023-24 campaign, so his absence won't have much of an impact on DFS managers.

Gary Payton II Unavailable For Friday Versus New Orleans

Golden State Warriors guard/forward Gary Payton II (calf) won't play on Friday against the New Orleans Pelicans due to tightness in his left calf. His absence isn't surprising, as he was listed as doubtful earlier in the day. Payton II last suited up on Tuesday against the Lakers, registering nine points, one rebound, and one assist in 14 minutes. Extra minutes will be available for guards Klay Thompson, Chris Paul and Moses Moody in Fridays contest.

Gary Payton II Out On Thursday

Golden State Warriors guard/forward Gary Payton II (calf) won't be in the lineup on Thursday against Portland. After being a late addition to the injury report, Payton II hasn't been able to get rid of tightness in his left calf to be available to play. Draymond Green (knee) and Klay Thompson (knee) are also on the shelf on Thursday, leaving Golden State a bit shorthanded. However, the team should still have enough quality to take care of business against a struggling Portland squad. There are more minutes available for Chris Paul, Jonathan Kuminga, Brandin Podziemski, and Moses Moody. Paul and Kuminga will join the starting five for the clash.

Gary Payton II Picks Up Questionable Tag

Golden State Warriors guard/forward Gary Payton II (calf) has been added to the injury report with a questionable tag a few hours before tipoff against Portland on Thursday. He's experiencing tightness in his left calf and might have to sit out Thursday's action after playing in 16 consecutive games. Draymond Green (knee) and Klay Thompson (knee) have already been ruled out, so we should see plenty of Brandin Podziemski and Jonathan Kuminga on Thursday. Moses Moody will also have a chance to step up from the second unit if Payton II can't go.

Gary Payton II Cleared To Face Dallas

Golden State Warriors guard Gary Payton II (ankle) will play on Friday against the Mavericks. He was listed on the injury report because of a sore left ankle. Fortunately, the 31-year-old is good to go. Under normal circumstances, Payton wouldn't have much upside for DFS managers. However, he's worth rostering in deep DFS contests, considering Jonathan Kuminga (knee) and Andrew Wiggins (ankle) aren't available.

Gary Payton II May Not Play Friday

Golden State Warriors guard Gary Payton II (ankle) has been listed as questionable on Friday against the Dallas Mavericks due to left ankle soreness. The 31-year-old has enjoyed the healthiest part of his season while missing only two games since the beginning of February. Payton hasn't seen heavy minutes this year, however, so his fantasy value is limited to some defensive stats and lower scoring numbers. If he doesn't play however, that would mean more minutes to go around for Moses Moody and Brandin Podziemski who have served as solid streaming options given the right matchups.

Gary Payton II Available On Thursday

Golden State Warriors guard Gary Payton II (ankle) is available ahead of Thursday's game against the Houston Rockets. As expected, Payton will play after being listed as probable coming into this game. Payton should resume his normal role off the bench for Golden State. He normally plays minutes in the teens and doesn't offer enough scoring to warrant rostering in most fantasy formats.

Gary Payton II Listed As Probable For Thursday

Golden State Warriors guard Gary Payton II (ankle) is probable for Thursday's matchup with Houston. He has been dealing with left ankle soreness, but the guard has yet to miss any time due to the injury. If the 31-year-old cannot suit up, it shouldn't impact Golden State's rotation. He's averaged 4.6 points, 1.8 rebounds and 1.3 assists in the last 10 games while playing around 14.6 minutes per contest.
