The Golden State Warriors will square off against the Phoenix Suns on Thursday. The last meeting between the two sides ended in the Dubs’ favor as they won a close contest 109-105, leveling the season series to, 1-1. Stephen Curry and the Warriors will look to take the edge tonight as they gear up to face Phoenix.

Moreover, Golden State comes in this game after a commanding win over the conference leaders OKC Thunder. On the flip side, the Suns fell short in their recent matchup against the Timberwolves, 121-113 ending their three-match winning streak. That being said, this is a highly anticipated matchup with two star-studded lineups colliding. So, let’s dive into the Warriors’ injury report to know more.

Golden State Warriors injury report before the showdown against the Suns

Let’s start off with the most important question: Will Stephen Curry suit up against the Suns? Well, the Warriors guard returned to the court in the last game after missing out on the Jazz matchup. Curry logged 21 points against the Thunder, contributing heavily to the win! Furthermore, he’s available for tonight’s matchup and is expected to suit up.

While Curry’s availability is a sigh of relief for the Dubs faithful, they’ll be without two key players tonight. Who? You might question. Warriors will miss forward Jonathan Kuminga, who’s out with an ankle injury. The 22-year-old is set to be re-evaluated in the coming weeks. So far, Kuminga has been solid averaging 16.8 points, five rebounds, and 2.2 assists, so his absence will be a huge blow for the Warriors.

Moreover, veteran Draymond Green will also watch this clash from the sidelines. Green has sustained a calf injury ruling him out. Although the Warriors will miss these two forwards, it’s not something they can’t navigate through. On the other hand, taking a look at their opponents who are without any injuries. This might serve as a concern for Steph Curry and the Warriors as they look to build momentum heading to the latter stages of the season.

Warriors’ predicted lineup for tonight

With Kuminga and Green unavailable for this one, coach Steve Kerr will have to make some tweaks to his lineup tonight. Gary Payton II had a strong performance against OKC scoring 15 points while he also grabbed nine rebounds and has three assists. He’ll most likely retain his starting spot for this one. Moreover, we can also see rookie Quinten Post clock in more minutes.

So, here’s how the Warriors can line up:

To sum it up, this will be an entertaining game. Majorly because two of the biggest superstars Steph Curry and Kevin Durant will go head-to-head tonight. Moreover, the Warriors although will have the upper hand, the Suns can’t be written off. With no injuries expect them to come with full force at Curry and Co., everyone’s eyes will be glued to their screen as the ball hits the air tonight!
