The Golden State Warriors are set to face the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday night, and star forward Draymond Green has been added to the injury report with a right knee contusion. Green is being listed as questionable for this game, meaning there is still a chance he ends up being available to play despite his addition to the injury report.

According to Anthony Slater of The Athletic, Green has been dealing with this knee issue throughout Golden State's road trip, which has led to his name being added to the injury report:

Green has been fantastic for the Warriors this season when available, but that availability has unfortunately been an issue. Having played just 23 games this season, Green has missed a lot of time due to two separate suspensions. That said, Green has not missed a game since returning from his last suspension, so hopefully that streak is able to stay alive despite this questionable listing. 

The Warriors believe they have found a solid starting lineup with Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, Andrew Wiggins, Jonathan Kuminga, and Draymond Green. Since going to this five-man group, the Warriors have had starters in and out of the lineup, with Green in danger of being the most recent one. 

All of that being said, a questionable listing still leaves open the possibility of Green playing in this game.
