The Golden State Warriors already knew they'd be without Al Horford and Jonathan Kuminga on Monday night against the Utah Jazz.
Turns out, they won't have Draymond Green, either.
Green was ruled out midway through Monday afternoon.
Draymond Green is not participating in tonight's game.
Draymond Green is out with an injury he picked up in the Warriors' most recent game against the Portland Trail Blazers.
It's been officially termed a right foot sprain.
Green sustained the injury when he was going for a loose ball and had his right foot landed on by the Blazers' huge center, Donovan Clingan.
The duration of Green's absence remains uncertain, though his being sidelined on game day rather than prior indicates the injury might not be severe.
With no Green or Horford, the center rotation will include Quinten Post and Trayce Jackson-Davis. Jimmy Butler will likely have to play big, while Moses Moody, Buddy Hield and Will Richard will get a heavy allotment of minutes on the wings. Gui Santos may also see time off the bench.
