Golden State Warriors DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Monday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. The superstar guard is reportedly dealing with left knee inflammation, which shouldn't sideline him for long. He missed three games towards the end of October due to an ankle issue. The Warriors are already low on depth at the guard spot, so losing Curry would certainly hurt. Buddy Hield should see additional playing time and is already worth rostering in most formats. Brandin Podziemski would probably see more minutes as well, but he isn't as appealing as Hield. Podziemski did finish with 11 points, seven rebounds, and five assists during his last game, but he's more of a boom-or-bust option.

Golden State Warriors forward/center Draymond Green (knee) has picked up a questionable tag on Friday for their contest against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The former Defensive Player of the Year hasn't missed a game yet this year and has anchored one of the best defenses in the league again. A lot of his numbers are down in his 13th season, but his all-around skills are still conducive to category leagues. If Green can't play, Trayce Jackson-Davis, Kevon Looney, and Kyle Anderson will all see some extra minutes.

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (ankle) will return for Monday's game against the Wizards. The sharpshooter has missed the last three games because of a sprained right ankle. But he had been progressing even more over the last few days, so fantasy managers had a feeling he was on his way back. While there is a chance Curry will see fewer minutes than usual in his first game back, he remains a must-start. Brandin Podziemski, who will likely head back to the bench, is still worth adding to any fantasy lineup.

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (ankle) is listed as questionable for Monday night's game against the Washington Wizards. Curry has been dealing with an ankle sprain that has kept him out of the team's last three games. The questionable mark is a step in the right direction for the 36-year-old and the Warriors, who are off to a 5-1 start. With the lowly Wizards on deck, it may not be a shock to see the Warriors let Curry rest his ankle a little longer before their next game on Wednesday against the Boston Celtics. If he does start, he is obviously a must start in all formats. If not, expect Brandin Podziemski to get another start. Podziemski has put up 14.7 PPG, 5.3 RPG and 6.0 APG while starting in Curry's place. Podziemski should be on all fantasy managers' radars and would make a sneaky DFS play if he gets the start on Monday.

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (ankle) remains out on Saturday versus the Houston Rockets. However, the multi-time All-Star is moving in the right direction. He participated in Saturday's shootaround, and the Warriors report he will be re-evaluated on Sunday. Curry has been out of the equation since suffering a sprained ankle in a recent matchup with the Los Angeles Clippers, keeping him off the floor for Golden State's previous two contests. It looks like Curry could be back soon. But until he returns, Brandin Podziemski, averaging 16.0 points, 6.0 assists, 5.5 rebounds, 1.0 blocks, and 1.0 steals in two appearances with the first five, is a must-start in all fantasy formats.
