Gets start Sunday
Green will enter the starting lineup in Sunday's game against the Timberwolves, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
Analysis
The veteran big man will supplant Kevon Looney in the starting five on Sunday. Green has appeared in only three of the Warriors' last five outings due to a left calf injury, during which he averaged 11.0 points, 8.3 rebounds, 6.3 assists, 1.7 steals and 1.3 blocks across 29.7 minutes per contest.

Shifting to bench role
Green is expected to come off the bench for the near future, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
Analysis
Green was utilized as a reserve during Friday's loss to the Timberwolves, and it wasn't quite clear whether this was being done to ease him back into play following a calf injury. However, the team has since decided to deploy the Michigan State product off the bench going forward, opening the door for Jonathan Kuminga to prove he belongs in Golden State's plan for the future. "A lot of people in this organization, including myself, think he's next," said Green. "So, if he's next, at some point, we gotta see it. For him to do that, he needs the opportunity. If the opportunity falls on you - being me - then, that's what it is. You gotta figure it out. He's earned the right to get that opportunity." Green managed to log 26 minutes off the bench Friday and finished with 10 points, nine rebounds and six assists, so he should still play a significant role in the Warriors' rotation.

Coming off bench Friday
Green is not in the Warriors' starting lineup for Friday's game against the Timberwolves, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
Analysis
Green will come off the bench Friday as he eases his way back from a two-game absence due to a left calf injury. Jonathan Kuminga -- who is coming off a 33-point performance against the Rockets on Thursday -- will remain in the Warriors' starting lineup for a third consecutive game.

Available vs. Minnesota
Green (calf) is available for Friday's game against the Timberwolves, head coach Steve Kerr told Sam Gordon of the San Francisco Chronicle.
Analysis
Green has been bothered by a calf problem in recent days and missed the last two games as a result of the injury. However, the veteran forward will suit up for this matchup and should handle something close to his regular workload, although he might have some kind of modest minutes restriction. Green will have a tough defensive assignment dealing with Julius Randle and Rudy Gobert. He's averaging 8.2 points, 7.4 rebounds and 6.6 assists per game over his last five outings.

Probable Friday vs. Timberwolves
Green (calf) is probable for Friday's matchup against Minnesota, Alan Horton of the Timberwolves Radio Network reports.
Analysis
Green has missed the Warriors' last two matchups due to a left calf injury, though he is expected to return to game action Friday. The veteran forward underwent an MRI on Thursday that revealed there's no significant damage to the left calf, but he could operate under a minutes restriction when he returns.

Tests come back clean
The Warriors announced Thursday that an MRI on Green's calf came back clean, and he could return to action for Friday's game versus the Timberwolves.
Analysis
While Green has avoided a serious injury, he has already been ruled out for Thursday's contest against Houston. Until the 34-year-old forward is able to suit up, Jonathan Kuminga will likely continue to receive increased playing time.

Will not play Thursday
Green (calf) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against Houston.
Analysis
Green was scheduled for an MRI on Wednesday, although results have yet to be shared. Thursday's contest represents the front half of a back-to-back set, with Minnesota coming to town Friday, so Green's left calf tightness will likely be handled with an abundance of caution. Stephen Curry (ankle management) will also be inactive Thursday.

Set to receive MRI
Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said Tuesday that Green (calf) will get an MRI on Wednesday, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
Analysis
Green has already been ruled out for Tuesday's contest due to left calf tightness, and Jonathan Kuminga will start in Green's absence. The Warriors should know more about the severity of Green's injury once his MRI results are read.
December 3, 2024
Siting out Tuesday
Green (calf) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Nuggets.
Analysis
Head coach Steve Kerr had already hinted Monday that Green would probably miss Tuesday's contest, and the forward's absence has now been confirmed. The Warriors have already been using a 12-man rotation when at full strength, but with Green out, Kerr will likely condense the rotation to 11. Green's minutes will likely be filtered among a number of players, with Jonathan Kuminga and Kyle Anderson being two candidates to see increased run.
