Banged up Warriors won't have back-up point guard vs Lakers

Share

The Warriors are banged up. Really, really banged up.

Point guard Steph Curry, power forward Draymond Green and center Zaza Pachulia have all been ruled out for Monday's game against the Lakers.

And now Curry's back-up won't play Monday. Guard Shaun Livingston has been ruled out due to a knee injury, head coach Steve Kerr announced to reporters after practice on Sunday.

With Livingston and Curry out, Quinn Cook and Patrick McCaw will handle a bulk of the ball-handling responsibilities.

"Gotta be as beaten up as we've ever been since I've been here. I don't remember having this many guys out, particularly starters, so it's all part of it. We've handled it well, obviously and it's created some opporunities for other guys that they've taken advantage of," Kerr said Sunday in Oakland.

Nick Young, who missed the last game with a concussion, is expected to play Monday.
