SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - Stephen Curry and Draymond Green sat out against the Houston Rockets on Thursday with the hope they will return for the second game of the back-to-back when the Golden State Warriors host Minnesota on Friday night.
Curry has been dealing with pain in both knees. He underwent an MRI exam on Nov. 26 that showed no structural damage. But he is experiencing discomfort around his kneecaps and he missed facing the Thunder a day later.
Green is sidelined by tightness in his left calf. With the two starters out, Buddy Hield and Jonathan Kuminga we scheduled to start against the Rockets.
"I always enjoy these type of games," coach Steve Kerr said. "Obviously I would rather have Steph and Draymond, but I like seeing our other guys get opportunities.”
