Warriors' Andrew Wiggins: Will return Saturday
Coach Steve Kerr said Friday that Wiggins (back) will return to the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Rockets, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
Wiggins missed a back-to-back set against the Pelicans due to a back issue but will return to action Saturday for the shorthanded Warriors, who remain without Stephen Curry (ankle) and De'Anthony Melton (back). Over his first three appearances, Wiggins has averaged 19.7 points, 6.7 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.0 blocks in 25.0 minutes.

Warriors' De'Anthony Melton: Out another three games
Melton (back) will miss Golden State's next three contests, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
Melton is dealing with inflammation in his lower back that will force him to extend his absence streak to at least five games. In his absence, Lindy Waters and Moses Moody are candidates to continue receiving increased playing time. Melton's next chance to suit up is against Cleveland on Nov. 8.

Warriors' Stephen Curry: Chance to return Monday
The Warriors announced that Curry (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's game in Houston, but he practiced Friday and will be re-evaluated Sunday.
Curry is seemingly on track to return for Monday's game in Washington, barring a setback. Saturday's absence will mark Curry's third straight, which has allowed Buddy Hield, Lindy Waters and Brandin Podziemski to handle increased usage. Curry may be limited upon his return, and he's yet to play more than 27 minutes this season, averaging a modest 18.3 points and 6.7 minutes in 26.3 minutes per game through his first three appearances.

Warriors' De'Anthony Melton: Remains out Saturday
Melton (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Rockets.
Melton is dealing with inflammation in his lower back and will miss a third consecutive game Saturday. With the 26-year-old and Stephen Curry (ankle) both out, Lindy Waters and Moses Moody are candidates for an increased role. In three regular-season appearances, Melton has averaged 6.3 points, 2.7 assists, 1.7 steals-plus-blocks and 1.3 rebounds across 16.7 minutes per game.

Warriors' Andrew Wiggins: Probable for Saturday
Wiggins (back) is probable for Saturday's game versus the Rockets.
Wiggins is dealing with a lower back strain that held him out of two straight matchups. However, the 29-year-old is progressing toward a return to game action, and he will likely give it a go as the club is still without Stephen Curry (ankle) and De'Anthony Melton (back) for Saturday.

Warriors' Stephen Curry: Absence streak continues Saturday
Curry (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Rockets.
Curry will miss his third consecutive game due to a left ankle strain he sustained in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against the Clippers. The Warriors will likely work the superstar back to playing form slowly early in the season, though his next chance to suit up will come Monday against the Wizards.

Warriors' Draymond Green: Records season-high 14 points
Green posted 14 points (5-11 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, six assists, five blocks and one steal over 30 minutes during Wednesday's 104-89 win over the Pelicans.
Green had his best outing of the season during Wednesday's win, tallying a season-high 14 points and five blocks. While Green shouldn't be relied upon to score in bunches consistently, he is averaging 1.8 blocks and 1.8 steals in 2024-25.

Warriors' Trayce Jackson-Davis: Season-high 15 points
Jackson-Davis posted 15 points (7-9 FG, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds, two assists and one block over 20 minutes during Wednesday's 104-89 victory over the Pelicans.
Jackson-Davis recorded a season-high 15 points and tied his high-water mark with nine rebounds in Wednesday's win. The second-year big man has started in each of his first five regular-season appearances, averaging 9.6 points, 5.0 rebounds and 2.4 assists in 19.0 minutes. Jackson-Davis is also shooting 77.7 percent from the field over that span.

Warriors' Jonathan Kuminga: Posts 16 points from bench
Kuminga logged 16 points (6-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal over 27 minutes during Wednesday's 104-89 win over the Pelicans.
Kuminga would have been a logical choice to enjoy an increased role with Stephen Curry (ankle) and Andrew Wiggins (back) sidelined, but coach Steve Kerr seemed to have other plans. After starting the first three games of the season, Kuminga came off the bench during the two-game stint against the Pelicans. Kerr probably made the move after some shooting struggles impaired his bottom line, but Kuminga has righted the ship over the past two contests.

Warriors' Lindy Waters: Struggles with first unit
Waters logged three points (1-5 FG, 1-5 3Pt), one rebound, three assists, one block and one steal over 30 minutes during Wednesday's 104-89 win over New Orleans.
The absences of Stephen Curry (ankle) and Andrew Wiggins (back) has forced coach Steve Kerr to explore the team's depth. He opted for Lindy Waters to start over Buddy Hield after a good performance off the bench in the first game against the Pelicans. The success was not replicated in the rematch, and Waters struggled for much of his 30 minutes on the floor. Waters may have avoided a trip back to the G League based on his early success, but he'll sink down the depth chart once the team is fully healthy.

Warriors' Buddy Hield: Leads team to complete sweep
Hield provided 21 points (8-19 FG, 4-12 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal over 29 minutes during Wednesday's 104-89 win over the Pelicans.
Hield's move to the second unit was an interesting twist in the back end of this two-game tilt with the Pelicans. Coach Steve Kerr must have really liked what he saw from Lindy Waters, as he got the promotion to the first unit but struggled in the new role. Enter Hield, who is extremely comfortable in a sixth-man role. Once Stephen Curry (ankle) and Andrew Wiggins (back) return, that's where Hield will be for most of the season. As the first man off the bench, his sharpshooting skills will bridge the scoring gap, especially when Curry takes a break.

Warriors' Lindy Waters: Starting nod Wednesday
Waters is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against New Orleans, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
Waters gets the start with Stephen Curry (ankle) and Andrew Wiggins (back) sidelined. Wednesday will mark Waters' first start since his rookie season in 2021-22, but after a 21-point (8-13 FG, 3-7 3Pt) outburst Tuesday, coach Steve Kerr will go with the hot hand.

Warriors' Buddy Hield: Not starting Wednesday
Hield will come off the bench during Wednesday's game against the Pelicans, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
Hield dropped 28 points on 9-for-18 shooting in his first start of the season Tuesday, but he'll move back to the bench Wednesday in favor of Lindy Waters. Regardless of his reserve status, Hield should see plenty of action as the Warriors will be without Stephen Curry (ankle), De'Anthony Melton (back) and Andrew Wiggins (back) against New Orleans.

Warriors' Andrew Wiggins: Out Wednesday
Wiggins (back) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against New Orleans, Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
A lower back strain will sideline Wiggins for his second consecutive contest. Lindy Waters is coming off of 21-point effort in his absence, while the quartet of Brandin Podziemski, Moses Moody, Buddy Hield and Jonathan Kuminga will also shoulder additional work on offense.

Wiggins is dealing with back tightness, and a decision on his status will be made following his pregame warm-up routine. Stephen Curry (ankle) and De'Anthony Melton are already unavailable for Golden State on Wednesday.
