Injury Report: Gold Vs. Warriors Sacramento Kings.

Steph Curry and Klay Thompson are out, Draymond Green to play vs. Kings

In back-to-back finals, the Golden State Warriors will be without some significant contributors. Already below Steph Curry, who will be sidelined for the remainder of the regular season, the Warriors announced that Klay Thompson, Andre Iguodala and Otto Porter Jr. will miss this contest versus the Sacramento Kings. Despite resting key team veterans, Drummond Green is expected to play.

While the Warriors will be shorthanded for this, so will the Kings. The team announced that De'Aaron Fox, Terence Davis, Richaun Homes, and Domantas Sabonis would all miss the game. Big Man Alex Lane is currently a suspect.

The Warriors got a massive comeback on Saturday night over the Utah Jazz, who punched their ticket to the post-season run. Although the playoffs for Golden State have been achieved, seeding is still not determined. The team currently sits in the third seed; However, they're just a half game on Dallas, which is fighting hard for that spot.

With the Utah Jazz struggling, it is highly unlikely that the Warriors will drop below fourth; However, crazy things can happen in the final week of the season. Not only is the Golden State seed to be determined, but their first round could be any variation of the rival teams. This is not just because of the uncertainty surrounding Golden State seeds, but also the 5-7 daily shifting of seeds.

As Steph Curry said recently, the Warriors expect to be prepared to face him in the first round. While they will close out their season without a fully filled roster, all signs are pointing to Steph Curry making his return for the playoffs. Should that actually happen, the Warriors are expected to compete with someone.
