Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green will miss at least a week with a strained left calf. The Warriors said an MRI determined that Green has only a minor strain and he will be re-evaluated in one week.

The Sacramento Kings and Golden State Warriors have had a rivalry brewing since their meeting in the first round of the 2023 NBA playoffs, but the series has been unexpectedly lopsided recently. The Kings have beaten the Warriors in four consecutive meetings, the last two being by an average margin of 27 points.

Without their best defensive player against the reigning NBA champions, the Warriors produced a -40.7 net rating. During the season, the Warriors post a 1.0 net rating when Green plays, with their production dropping significantly when he doesn't suit up with a -6.8 figure.

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green will be sidelined for at least one week due to a mild calf strain, the team announced Monday.

Draymond Green's calf injury adds to Warriors' struggles. Awaiting MRI results, his return date is uncertain ahead of important games.

The middle portion of the Western Conference standings is a forgiving place. The struggling Suns were blown out by the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday, leaving them tied with the Warriors at 21-21. The Minnesota Timberwolves have fallen to 22-21, and the Warriors already own the tiebreaker over them.

Yahoo Sports' Kevin O'Connor believes the time is right for the Warriors to "blow up" the roster and trade Stephen Curry and Draymond Green.

Still, Golden State's leaning on the "two timelines" team-building could have blown up in the franchise's face. Instead of trading Jonathan Kuminga and Brandin Podziemski for an All-Star like Lauri Markkanen, they assured fans the two young players warranted their untouchable status.

Though the Warriors will be without Jonathan Kuminga (ankle) and Draymond Green (calf) on Saturday, Anderson may not necessarily be returning to a sizable role in the Golden State frontcourt.

Gui Santos and Quinten Post became the first duo in franchise history to each hit at least five 3s off the bench in a game.

The Eagles were led by superstar running back Saquon Barkley, who had an NFC Championship performance that only Saquon can have. Barkley ran for 118 yards and 3 touchdowns, including an absurd 60-yard score to open the game.
