Looking to escape the play-in picture, the Golden State Warriors know that every game counts from now until the season ends. The team is still without Steph Curry, who is expected to get reevaluated on Wednesday, but they should be getting Draymond Green back for Tuesday night's game against the Portland Trail Blazers.

The Warriors have released their injury report for this game vs. Portland, and Draymond Green has been upgraded to probable. Steph Curry, Andrew Wiggins, Andre Iguodala, Ryan Rollins, and Gary Payton II all remain out for Golden State.

For the Trail Blazers, they will be without Jusuf Nurkic, Anfernee Simons, Justise Winslow, Ibou Badji, and Ryan Arcidiacono. After his 71-point performance, Damian Lillard will be available to play for the Blazers.

With Steph Curry sidelined, fans will unfortunately miss out on the Lillard vs. Curry matchup. Both teams will be down key pieces, removing a lot of the excitement from what would be a fun matchup at full strength. That said, this is a meaningful game for both teams. The Trail Blazers are currently outside of the play-in picture, but they are just 1.5 games back from the Warriors, who sit in 7th.

While the Warriors await Steph Curry's return, they are hoping to continue inching up the standings. They have done well to climb back into 7th, and will look to build on this with a win against the Trail Blazers.
