Remains questionable for Game 4
Head coach Steve Kerr says Butler (pelvis) has been working with the training staff and is listed as questionable for Monday's game, Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis
Butler missed Game 3 while continuing to deal with his pelvic injury. However, he has a chance to get back on the floor for Game 4. If he can't play Monday, the Warriors will likely turn to Jonathan Kuminga in the starting lineup once again. Kuminga got the start for Game 3, but played only 17 minutes, finishing with seven points, two assists and one rebound.

Not playing in Game 3
Butler (pelvis) is out for Game 3 against the Rockets on Saturday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Analysis
Butler was initially deemed as questionable for Game 3, but in the end, the star forward will be sidelined for this matchup. Jonathan Kuminga will start in his place and should be in line for an elevated role in terms of playing time.

Officially deemed questionable
The Warriors announced Friday that Butler has been diagnosed with a left pelvic and deep gluteal muscle contusion and will be listed as questionable Saturday for Game 3 of the team's first-round playoff series matchup with the Rockets.
Analysis
Butler left Game 2 with 1:51 remaining in the first quarter after being undercut by Amen Thompsonand falling hard to the court, but he seems to have avoided a long-term injury. However, if Butler is forced to miss Game 3, Jonathan Kuminga -- who had been out of the rotation for Game 1 but played 26 minutes following Butler's departure in Game 2 -- would likely be in store for an elevated role once again.

Status in question for Game 3
Butler has been diagnosed with a deep glute muscle bruise and is in danger of missing Saturday's Game 3 against the Rockets, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Analysis
Butler was unable to return to Wednesday's Game 2 after being undercut by Amen Thompson, and while he was able to avoid any structural damage, he's in jeopardy of missing additional action following this diagnosis. The Warriors will undoubtedly monitor the star forward's status closely over the next few days before making a final determination on his availability for Saturday. Butler is expected to be officially listed as questionable once the injury report is released, per NBA reporter Chris Haynes.

Won't return Wednesday
Butler has been diagnosed with a pelvis contusion and will not return to Wednesday's game against the Rockets.
Analysis
Butler took a hard fall during the first quarter after being undercut by Amen Thompson while jumping for a rebound and looked to be in significant pain. While early indications are that it isn't a severe injury, Butler will be unable to play for the remainder of Wednesday's contest. He'll have two full days to heal before Game 3 on Saturday. In the meantime, look for Jonathan Kuminga, Gui Santos and Gary Payton to see more run. Per Sam Gordon of the San Francisco Chronicle, Butler will undergo an MRI on Thursday.

Heads to locker room
Butler has exited Wednesday's Game 2 against Houston and headed back to the locker room with an apparent tailbone injury, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports.
Analysis
Butler got undercut while going up for a rebound and was grabbing at his tailbone area before exiting the floor. While he's idle, look for Gui Santos and Gary Payton to see more action, though Jonathan Kuminga could see some run after being a DNP-CD in Game 1.
