While Curry played through his injury on Monday in a three-point loss to the Clippers, Looney was held out. His availability does not significantly impact fantasy basketball, as the Warriors can rely on Trayce Jackson-Davis and Draymond Green for frontcourt minutes. Curry should be available, but Buddy Hield and Brandin Podziemski would see their roles expand if he is not.
Looney's absence will not significantly impact fantasy basketball, but it does leave Golden State down a rotation big. Trayce Jackson-Davis' role as the starting center won't change, but there may be times when the Warriors go small and use Draymond Green at the five.
Looney is on the injury report due to an illness, but his status will not significantly impact fantasy basketball. Trayce Jackson-Davis should already be rostered in most standard leagues, and a Looney absence would mean TJD and Draymond Green split the available minutes at the five.
It seemed like Steve Kerr had a lineup that he was comfortable with before De'Anthony Melton's injury. Waters will get the first crack as the starter in his place, but it wouldn't be surprising if he made changes over the next few games. Moses Moody and Brandin Podziemski should see extra minutes off the bench.
As the Golden State Warriors experienced an offseason full of change this summer, that also meant adjusting the role of second-year center Trayce Jackson-Davis.
