The Golden State Warriors are a hampered squad for their game against the Cleveland Cavaliers, according to the injury report.
For the Golden State Warriors, it’s either now or never. With limited margin for error, the Stephen Curry-led team’s next game is a critical matter. The Cleveland Cavaliers, the top club in the NBA, will visit Golden State on Monday. The Cavaliers have won their past five games, while the Warriors have a 2-3 record in their last five games. The Warriors are injured, which suggests a difficult game, according to Monday’s injury report.
On November 8, their most recent game ended without much drama as the Cavaliers thrashed the Warriors 136-117.
Three members of the second unit are listed as injured, which will hurt the Warriors’ bench even though none of their best players will miss Monday’s game. The Warriors have two other key role players listed as out, although Moses Moody is labeled as probable after missing Saturday’s 109-105 victory against the Suns.
With no core players or reliable role players listed on their injury report outside Isaac Okoro, the Cavaliers seem poised for another successful game.
The emphasis is on the ninth seed in the Western Conference because of the Warriors’ sharp decline in performance since their most recent encounter with the Cavaliers. The Warriors have lost their fiery personality from the beginning of the season and are 9-13 since their previous game against the Cavaliers.
