SAN ANTONIO — The Golden State Warriors will have no more than half of their active roster, including Stephen Currywhen they take on the San Antonio Spurs on Tuesday in the second straight game.
After scoring 40 points against the Houston Rockets on Monday, Curry is listed as out because of a sore left toe. Golden State will also not have Andrew Wiggins (pain in the left knee), Otto Porter Jr.. (management of left foot injuries) and Nemanja Bjelica (back spasms).
Those four players join several others already expected to miss Tuesday’s game.
Warriors coach Steve Kerr said Monday that Thompson would not play against the Spurs, following his plan to rest him back-to-back when he returns from his 2 1/2-year hiatus.
Andrew Iguodala (handling left hip injury) will miss his seventh straight game, while Draymond Green (recovering from a lumbar disc injury) will miss his 15th straight game (including Jan. 9, when he played just seven seconds of Thompson’s first game). James Wisemann (recovering from an injury to his right knee) has not played since last season and there is no date for his return.
The Warriors said Green is making positive steps in his recovery from a “left L5-S1” disc injury and will be re-evaluated before the All-Star Game.
Green, 31, has had a resurgent season for the Warriors, averaging 7.9 points, 7.6 rebounds and 7.4 assists while shooting a career-high 53.7% from the field.
The Warriors will be left with only one regular starter, Kevin Looneywho will play with the chosen lottery Jonathan Kuminga Y Moses Moodyrole players Gary Payton II, Juan Toscano-Anderson Y Damion Leeand two-way players Chris Chioza Y Quinndary Weatherspoon. jordan poole will also be active.
