The injuries — or, in this case, re-injuries — are piling up for the Warriors.
First Kevin Durant had to leave the game with a lower leg injury, just 12 minutes into his return after a month of missed games with a strained calf.
In the second half, Kevon Looney was clearly in pain with his collar bone area injury. Now he is done for the game as well.
Kevon Looney reaggravated his right 1st costal cartilage non-displaced fracture injury and will not return.

Looney was a critical part of the Warriors front line rotation. His absence means more DeMarcus Cousins — who was strong on offense and the glass, but was picked on defensively — and even some Jordan Bell. Those are big steps down for the Warriors on the court.
And it showed as Toronto came back.
