On Thursday evening, the Golden State Warriors will face off against the Portland Trail Blazers in Oregon.

For the game, they will be without one of their best players, as four-time NBA Champion Draymond Green has been ruled out.

Via Anthony Slater of The Athletic: "Draymond Green and Klay Thompson are both out tonight in Portland. Gary Payton II is now questionable with calf tightness. The Warriors will try to beat the 21-58 Blazers without a chunk of their rotation, setting up a huge back-to-back at home tomorrow vs Pelicans."

Green has had another productive season with averages of 8.8 points, 7.1 rebounds and 5.9 assists per contest while shooting 49.7% from the field and 39.5% from the three-point range in 54 games.

The Warriors enter the evening as the tenth seed in the Western Conference (the final play-in tournament spot) with a 44-35 record in 79 games.

They have gone 8-2 over their last ten games and are also in the middle of a two-game winning streak.

Following the Trail Blazers, Golden State will play their next game on Friday evening when they return to San Francisco to host the New Orleans Pelicans at the Chase Center.

As for the Trail Blazers, they are the 14th seed in the Western Conference with a 21-58 record in 79 games.

They have gone 2-8 over their last ten games and are also in the middle of a two-game losing streak.

Following the Warriors, the Trail Blazers will host the Houston Rockets on Friday evening.
