Stephen Curry (foot) expected to play on Saturday.
Stephen Curry (foot) expected to play on Saturday. This will be a huge boost for the Warriors’ offense, who have been relying on Jordan Poole and Klay Thompson to lead this offense during his absence. Expect both to take a hit offensively, as their usage rates will go down. CourtIQ shows that when Curry has been ON the court this season, Poole has seen a team-high -4.5% usage decrease.

Luka Doncic (calf) doubtful for Saturday.
Luka Doncic (calf) doubtful for Saturday. With Doncic likely out, expect Spencer Dinwiddie to move into the starting lineup and lead the offense alongside Jalen Brunson. This is a huge blow to the offense and CourtIQ shows when Doncic (and Tim Hardaway Jr.) have been out this season, Dinwiddie has averaged 1.29 fantasy points per minute while Brunson has been at 1.16.

As reported by: Chris Kirschner Romeo Langford (hamstring) available on Wednesday.
Romeo Langford (hamstring) available on Wednesday. This isn’t too impactful as I doubt Langford enters the rotation but it does mean the Spurs enter the series at full health minus Doug McDermott.
As reported by: Bruno Passos Taurean Prince (knee) out Tuesday.
Taurean Prince (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday’s play-in game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Prince was expected to play backup forward minutes but now that responsibility will fall on Jaden McDaniels, with the possibility of Josh Okogie entering the rotation according to HC Finch. Both McDaniels and Okogie are not expected to play a large enough role to be seriously considered in DFS contests tonight, though McDaniels would be the better option of the two.
As reported by: Tomer Azarly John Collins (foot/finger) and Lou Williams (back) both out on Wednesday.

As reported by: Andrew Lopez Luke Kennard (hamstring) out on Tuesday.
Luke Kennard (hamstring) out on Tuesday. With Kennard out, the Clippers may rely more on Terance Mann, Robert Covington and Norman Powell in the second unit, while this is also a boost for Reggie Jackson as the guard rotation will shorten.
