Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (back) is set to do a 5-on-5 scrimmage on Wednesday. It was announced that Green will return to action on March 14 against the Washington Wizards. It sounds like Green is doing the scrimmage as a warmup before getting back on the court. It'll be interesting to see what changes with the Warriors rotation once Green returns. Jonathan Kuminga and Otto Porter Jr. are likely both going to take significant hits to their fantasy value.

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (back) has returned to practice. This is undoubtedly good news for the team, primarily since he hasn't played since January 5th because of a lower back injury. It's unknown how much longer the veteran will remain out. However, until Green can make it back, rookie Jonathan Kuminga, who is averaging 15.4 points in February, should continue to benefit on the fantasy end. Gary Payton II has also been getting some run with the starting unit, although his offensive upside is limited, and he is mainly on the floor because of his defensive prowess.

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (back) mentioned that he should be able to get back on the floor soon. Green is hopeful to get back to playing within the next three or four weeks. However, the Warriors are likely to ease Green back into action since he hasn't played in months. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect Green to be back on the floor in time for the fantasy playoffs. Until Green returns, Jonathan Kuminga should continue getting consistent playing time. He's worth rostering in most fantasy formats with Green sidelined.

The Golden State Warriors released a statement on injured forward Draymond Green (back) on Wednesday. In the statement, the team claimed that Green is making "good progress" in his recovery from a lower back/disc injury that has kept him sidelined for over a month. The Warriors, according to the statement, anticipate that Green will return to the court "at some point after the All-Star break." While this certainly isn't very concrete news, it's at least confirmation that the team isn't fearful that Green is done for the year. While Green remains out, we should continue to get a good look at rookie Jonathan Kuminga while Kevon Looney and Nemanja Bjelica will be the team's primary big men.

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (back) is showing improvement and should be re-evaluated before the All-Star break. Green has missed each of the last 12 games while dealing with a lower back issue. It sounds like Green could miss a few more weeks, but at least he's making progress towards a return. Otto Porter Jr. and Jonathan Kuminga will continue to benefit in the absence of Green. Porter is the better fantasy option between the two. Kuminga has decent upside, but is too inconsistent to trust in most fantasy formats.

Golden State Warriors power forward/center Draymond Green (calf) did not travel with the team for its four-game road trip, which begins Tuesday in Memphis. Green essentially has missed the two previous contests with a calf ailment, allowing Nemanja Bjelica, Juan Toscano-Anderson, and Otto Porter Jr. to all play larger roles in the frontcourt. While it's possible that Green rejoins the team during its road trip, Golden State has little incentive to rush the three-time All-Star back. Green has enjoyed a bit of a fantasy revival in 2021-22, as he is on track to shoot a career-best 53.7 percent overall, while averaging at least seven points, rebounds, and assists per contest.

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (hip) will return to the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He was given a rest day on Thursday, but appears ready to play now. Fantasy managers should see a slight uptick in minutes for Green with Juan Toscano-Anderson (ankle) sidelined. Also, the return of Klay Thompson could mean more assists for Green. Fantasy managers in season long formats should make sure he's in their lineups for Sunday. Also, Green could have some decent DFS appeal for Sunday's slate.

Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry (quad) and power forward/center Draymond Green (hip) are not listed on the team's injury report ahead of Sunday's matchup vs. Cleveland. Both players missed Thursday's loss to New Orleans, with their return coinciding with the season debut of Klay Thompson (Achilles), giving Golden State its fullest roster look of the year. Curry has struggled mightily from long range (2-for-19) over his last two games, while Green has combined for just seven points in the same time frame, with Sunday's matchup pitting the league's two premier defensive units against one another. Season-long managers can fire both players up, while DFS managers may have reason for pause.

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (hip) is listed as out for Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Fantasy managers shouldn't be too concerned as it seems the Warriors are giving both Green and Stephen Curry (quad) the night off to rest. That being said, Otto Porter Jr. is looking like a must-start fantasy option with Thursday's short slate. Nemanja Bjelica, Moses Moody and Jonathan Kuminga are all candidates to get extra minutes. However, Porter and Andrew Wiggins are going to be the biggest winners for Thursday's slate.

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green has entered the league's health and safety protocols. That is a shame since Green has been one of the better players on the team this season. In fact, Green has been providing 6th-round value in 9-cat formats for the season. The Warriors will likely use a committee approach with Otto Porter, Juan Toscano-Anderson, and Nemanja Bjelica, and Andre Iguodala. None of them jump off the page as a must-have fantasy option. Porter has the most upside out of them all and could have some streaming appeal with Green sidelined.

Golden State Warriors power forward Draymond Green notched his first triple-double of the season on Monday, going for 16 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists in a 113-98 win over the Kings. He missed only four of his 11 shots and capped things off with two steals and two blocks. Green also posted five turnovers in 33 minutes, but it's safe to say that he more than made up for them with his overall performance. The three-time All-Star is one of the most unique players in the league, and he's a major asset for fantasy managers with his ability to chip in across all categories.

Golden State Warriors power forward Draymond Green logged an eight-point, 11-rebound, seven-assist, three-block and one-steal performance during a 105-96 victory over the New York Knicks on Tuesday. The outing was typical for the Michigan State product, as he was productive at every level of the game across his 32 minutes of action. On the season, the unique three-time All-Star is averaging 8.3 points, 8.0 rebounds, 7.3 assists and 2.4 blocks on a career-best 55.6% shooting from the field, although he has a career-worst 58.7% from the line. While the scoring, treys and free-throw percentage are low, Green contributes across all other categories and is a double-double threat every night on pure hustle and guile.

Golden State Warriors power forward/center Draymond Green (back) is set to take the floor for Tuesday's game against Phoenix. Green took a hard fall during Golden State's win over the Clippers on Sunday, but it does not appear as if he will miss any game action due to the ailment. Back to his traditional stat sheet stuffing ways in 2021-22, Green remains a tremendous DFS upside play in tournament formats due to his near nightly flirtation with at least a double-double; the 31-year-old has been the Warriors' either leading rebounder or assist man in six of their last seven games.

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (thigh) won't play against Detroit on Friday. The veteran joins teammates Stephen Curry (hip), Andre Iguodala (knee), and Otto Porter Jr. (foot) on the inactive list against the underperforming Pistons, which comes on the second night of back-to-back contests. Nonetheless, Green and company should be back for Sunday's bout against the Toronto Raptors. In the meantime, Andrew Wiggins, Jordan Poole, and Kevon Looney are the favorites to lead the team on the offensive end. Yet, managers also have viable value opportunities to consider as well, with Nemanja Bjelica, ... [More]

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (thigh) will play against the Bulls. Green exited Wednesday's matchup versus the Minnesota Timberwolves after sustaining a right thigh contusion. However, the 31-year-old, who has surprisingly remained healthy this season, didn't appear in any real danger of missing this one. Nonetheless, Green is always in the running for a triple-double and should get some serious DFS consideration on Friday night, especially with Chicago being without Nikola Vucevic, who isn't available while adhering to health and safety protocols.

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (thigh) is questionable for Friday's game against the Bulls. Green left Wednesday's game due to a thigh contusion, but head coach Steve Kerr made it sound like more of a day-to-day thing than serious injury. If the veteran forward sits out Friday's contest, more usage would be available for Nemanja Bjelica, who would get an appealing matchup against the Bulls.

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (thigh) has been tagged as questionable for Friday's game. Right now, Green is dealing with a minor contusion and is considered day-to-day, according to head coach Steve Kerr. Kevon Looney and Nemanja Bjelica would see extended run, assuming Green cannot play Friday. Neither would have much streaming appeal, so fantasy managers should check back for another update on Friday.

Golden State Warriors power forward Draymond Green posted an 11-11-8 line in Saturday's big win over the Thunder, shooting 6-for-8 from the field and collecting one block and two turnovers in 26 minutes. The points and assists match his season high, while the 11 rebounds mark his second-best tally in 2021-22. It's been business as usual this year for the multi-talent, who's hitting nearly 60 percent from the field. A matchup against a pacy Charlotte side on Wednesday should help Green to fill the box score again.

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green did a little bit of everything for his team in Thursday's loss to the Grizzlies. Green scored only four points but found other ways to affect the game, chipping in 12 rebounds, seven assists, five blocks, and three steals in 38 minutes. The low scoring numbers certainly hurt his value in points formats- though he is one of the more valuable stat-sheet stuffers in roto and category leagues, given his averages of 8.2 rebounds, 6.8 assists, and 2.8 combined blocks and steals per game.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Warriors general manager Bob Myers has little doubt Golden State will sign newly crowned scoring champion Stephen Curry to a contract extension this offseason. “I don’t see any reason not to be optimistic,” Myers said Monday, three days after his team's season ended in a play-in game against the Grizzlies. “He seems like he’s motivated, we’re motivated. I would say pretty confident we’ll get something done.” In December, Curry said discussions were underway and that he is “fully committed.” The two-time NBA MVP signed a $201 million, five-year contract in July 2017 that initially was the richest ever, until James Harden topped it with a $228 million extension from the Rockets. “Obviously, we want Steph back in the worst way," coach Steve Kerr said. “There’s no reason to think why that won’t happen.” The shock of the season's abrupt end hadn't quite sunk in for two-time MVP Curry after Friday's loss at home to the Grizzlies, but he was already looking at what moves might...
