Los Angeles will be without Brandon Bass due to a ankle injury. Julius Randle should get the extra minutes in the front court.
Kobe Bryant is a game-time decision due to the sore achilles. Lakers trainer Gary Vitti suggest that Bryant sit out for a few weeks to rest the achilles. Lakers coach Byron Scott said it is up to Bryant whether or not he plays tonight or not.
On the other side James McAdoo is listed as doubtful for tonight’s game. He is dealing with a toe injury and his missed the last seven games because of it.
Draymond Green is listed as questionable for tonight as well. Green missed the Warriors game last night due to rest. He may sit out of tonight’s game in order to receive the proper rest for the long season. If he sits out tonight Harrison Barnes will get the start.
The Warriors are led by the most dynamic backcourt in the NBA the Splash Brothers. Stephen Curry leads the team with 29.8 points per game. Klay Thompson is second on the team averaging 20.9 points a night.
