The Golden State Warriors and Portland Trail Blazers face off tonight in a game where both teams are coming off the second night of a back-to-back.
The Warriors only have two players listed on their injury report: Draymond Green and Gary Payton II. Draymond Green remains out indefinitely due to a suspension, and Gary Payton II is out due to a right calf strain. Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, Andrew Wiggins, and Chris Paul will all be available on the second night of a back-to-back.
The Portland Trail Blazers have four players listed on their injury report: Ibou Badji, Justin Minaya, Rayan Rupert, and Robert Williams III. Ibou Badji is out due to a G League two-way, Justin Minaya is out due to a G League two-way, Rayan Rupert is out due to a G League assignment, and Robert Williams III is out due to a right knee ligament tear.
The last time these two teams faced off was an incredibly close game, and the Trail Blazers were very shorthanded. This time around, both teams will be relatively close to full strength and it’ll be a good test for the Warriors who are claiming to have new energy after a spirited team meeting. Even though Portland has a losing record, the Warriors can’t take them lightly.
The Golden State Warriors and Portland Trail Blazers face off tonight at 9:00 p.m. EST.
