Golden State Warriors DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Golden State Warriors guard/forward Gary Payton II (calf) will not play against Indiana on Monday, missing his first game of the season. Payton II has shown impressive durability with 27 consecutive appearances, but a calf contusion has knocked him out of the lineup for Monday's game. He'll get his first chance to return on Christmas Day when the Warriors face the Lakers. Buddy Hield and Brandin Podziemski will be in a position to play more without Payton II in the lineup on Monday. However, it's a bad matchup for Golden State's bench mob, as the Pacers give up the fourth-fewest bench points in the league.

Golden State Warriors guard/forward Moses Moody (knee) will be active against Indiana on Monday. He's available again for selection after missing the previous four contests with a knee problem. However, Moody availability isn't big news from a fantasy perspective, as he simply hasn't produced good enough numbers to be a viable option for managers. The 22-year-old has notched 7.4 points in 15.6 minutes this season. Dennis Schroder's addition also further complicates Moody's life in San Francisco.

According to Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com, Golden State Warriors forwardDraymond Green (ankle)is expected to play against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Saturday. Green was added to the injury list early on Saturday due to a sore left ankle. The 34-year-old hopes to recover after a rough outing on Thursday against Memphis, where he was unable to score a point, grab any rebounds, or log any assists in 19 minutes of playing time.

According to ESPN's Ohm Youngmisuk, Golden State Warriors forward/guard Moses Moody will not play against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Saturday due to soreness in his left knee. Head coach Steve Kerr said Moody felt "a little sore" after a scrimmage on Friday. The 22-year-old hasn't impacted fantasy basketball much, as he's averaged 7.4 points and 1.9 rebounds in 15.6 minutes across 23 games this season. Look for Jonathan KumingaandBuddy Hieldto receive extra time and scoring opportunities coming off the bench while Moody is out.

Golden State Warriors guard/forward Moses Moody (knee) will likely remain unavailable on Thursday against Memphis. After Moody missed Tuesday's practice, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said he would be listed as doubtful for the game. An issue with his left knee has kept Moody sidelined for a couple of contests already. The 22-year-old has posted 7.4 points and 1.9 rebounds in 15.6 minutes this season. Moody tends to spark into life occasionally but not often enough to make an impact in fantasy basketball.
