Quinten Post notched 16 points (5-of-15 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), six rebounds, three assists and four three-pointers on Friday in the loss to the Timberwolves.Despite not shooting the ball well, Post was Golden State's second-highest scorer on the evening -- the majority of his production came from beyond the arc, where he shot 4-of-11. He also made a decent impact on the boards in his 33 minutes. And while Post's performance on Friday was nothing spectacular, it marked the fourth straight game he's scored in double figures. He'll have chances to produce solid fantasy basketball numbers if Draymond Green (foot) and Al Horford (back) continue to miss time.
Stephen Curry, Pat Spencer, Buddy Hield, Jimmy Butler III and Quinten Post will start Friday's game against the Timberwolves.Curry is back after missing five games with a left quad contusion/strain, and his inclusion is the lone change to the starting lineup. He replaces rookie Will Richard, with Spencer remaining in the starting five due to his current hot streak. Richard will still get rotation minutes, but the move to the bench lowers his fantasy ceiling.
Draymond Green (foot) did not practice on Thursday and is questionable for Friday's game against the Timberwolves.Green has not practiced the last two days, with his absence on Thursday being excused by the team. The veteran forward has missed Golden State's last two games with a right midfoot sprain, with Quinten Post being his most recent replacement. With Jonathan Kuminga picking up a DNP-CD on Sunday, either Post or Al Horford would start if Green remains out.
Al Horford (sciatica) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Timberwolves.Horford will have missed three games as he deals with his sciatica. The Warriors could get both Stephen Curry and Draymond Green (foot) back for that game, which would likely mean fewer minutes for guys like Pat Spencer and Quinten Post. It remains to be seen when Horford will be able to return to the court.
Pat Spencer, Buddy Hield, Will Richard, Jimmy Butler III and Quinten Post will start Sunday's game against the Bulls.The Warriors have made just one change to the lineup that began Saturday's win over the Cavaliers. With Butler available, Jonathan Kuminga heads to the bench. While he should still play plenty, Kuminga's fantasy ceiling is lowered with the move to the second unit.
