Injury Report: Golden State Warriors vs New Orleans Pelicans
After a horrible loss to the Toronto Raptors, the Golden State Warriors look to bounce back against the New Orleans Pelicans tonight - a task that won't be easy.
The Warriors have three players listed on their injury report: Draymond Green, Chris Paul, and Gary Payton II. Draymond Green is out due to return to competition reconditioning after being suspended, Chris Paul is out due to a left-hand fracture, and Gary Payton II is out due to a left hamstring strain. Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, and Andrew Wiggins will all be available tonight.
The New Orleans Pelicans have six players listed on their injury report: Jose Alvarado, Kira Lewis Jr, Matt Ryan, Dereon Seabron, Zion Williamson, and Cody Zeller. Jose Alvarado is questionable with a non-COVID illness, Kira Lewis Jr. is out due to a G League assignment, Matt Ryan is out due to right elbow surgery, Dereon Seabron is out due to a G League two-way, Zion Williamson is questionable due to a right quad contusion, and Cody Zeller is available with a face mask.
If the Pelicans are missing Zion Williamson tonight, that would be a huge break for a struggling Warriors team. The Warriors need all the wins that they can get, especially with a 17-19 record that puts them in the 12th seed.
The Golden State Warriors and New Orleans Pelicans face off at 8:30 p.m. EST tonight.
