Luka Dončić, Jimmy Butler off Warriors vs. Lakers

In the middle of all trade deadline Madness, the Golden State Warriors have another game to play. Their short -haired watch list lost Wednesday night toward Utah Jazzand they will try to get that victory back tonight toward Los Angeles Lakers. In good news, Steph Curry plays both ends of a back-to-back, which has been a rarity for him this year.

Here is the full injury -report for two teams that are looking very, very different.

Warriors

Out – Jimmy Butler

Technically, Butler is not on the latest injuries. Instead, Andrew Wiggins, Lindy Waters III, Dennis Schröder and Kyle Anderson are all listed as out due to “trade pending.”

But the deadline is over, which means the trade is official. Butler is a member of Warriors, while these four are not. He does not play for them today, but there is optimism that he will be with the team at the arena tonight.

Out – Jonathan Kuminga (Right ankle Splace)

Kuminga is approaching a return, although it is likely to be on the other side of the All-Star break. I can’t wait to see him play with Butler.

Questionable – Moses Moody (Bilateral Low Back Tribe)

Moody missed Wednesday’s game with this injury and his absence was felt. Hopefully he is able to play.

Questionable – Gui Santos (left knee patellar tendon inflammation)

A new name on the injury list! They just don’t stop!

Likely – Draymond Green (left calf stem)

Always love the opportunity to see Green defend LeBron James. Hopefully we will get it tonight.

Likely -Trayce jackson-davis (right knee-soreness)

TJD was a late scratch on Wednesday, although he has also been out of the rotation recently. Will be interesting to see if he is playing against a Laker’s team that no longer has Anthony Davis on it.

Accessible – Kevon Looney (right nasal bone fracture – Facemask)

Masked Looney! Still on the injuries report but still playing.

Lakers

Out – Luka Dončić (left calf stem)

Dončic’s debut with Lakers is coming and quite soon. For better and worse, Warriors are not there to witness it.

Out – MAXI KLEBER (right foot break)

A less -danced part of the trade that shook the basketball world!

Out – Christian Wood (left crack surgery recovery)

Wood has not yet played this season, but there is still hope that he will return before the year is up.

Questionable – cam reddish (personal reasons?)

Reddish was reportedly included in Lakers’ Trade for Mark Williams Wednesday, so … sort of a fun listing here.

Likely – LeBron James (left foot injury handling)

Seems inevitably that LeBron will play in a national TV home match against Curry and Green.

Likely – Gabe Vincent (left knee contusion)

He does not put flashy numbers, but Vincent has had a quality season as a role plays for Lakers.
