Quinten

Post

Horford did not play in Monday’s win over the Nets, an unsurprising development since it was the Warriors’ second game in as many nights. The veteran center’s return will likely result in fewer minutes for Quentin Post.

Jackson-Davis is a late addition to the injury report, and there is a chance he misses this game. Quinten Post and Al Horford should take on extra minutes if Jackson-Davis is unavailable.

Counting Thursday, Horford has been available for one of the Warriors’ last ten games. His continued absence means a few more minutes for Quinten Post, but there’s no justifying stashing Horford in an IL+ slot at this stage of his career.

Green will be available on Sunday after missing three games with a right midfoot sprain. Second-year center Quinten Post started all three games, and he may be headed to the bench on Sunday. While Post would remain in the rotation, he isn’t worth holding onto in most leagues when Green is playing.

Despite not shooting the ball well, Post was Golden State’s second-highest scorer on the evening — the majority of his production came from beyond the arc, where he shot 4-of-11. He also made a decent impact on the boards in his 33 minutes. And while Post’s performance on Friday was nothing spectacular, it marked the fourth straight game he’s scored in double figures. He’ll have chances to produce solid fantasy basketball numbers if Draymond Green (foot) and Al Horford (back) continue to miss time.

Green has not practiced the last two days, with his absence on Thursday being excused by the team. The veteran forward has missed Golden State’s last two games with a right midfoot sprain, with Quinten Post being his most recent replacement. With Jonathan Kuminga picking up a DNP-CD on Sunday, either Post or Al Horford would start if Green remains out.

Post knocked down a season-high five three-pointers and matched his previous season-high mark with 19 points on the second night of a back-to-back. The 25-year-old sharp-shooting big man has stepped up to offer some fantasy relevance in deeper formats with both Draymond Green (foot) and Al Horford (sciatica) out of the lineup recently.

Horford will miss a second straight game after logging 18 minutes in Thursday’s loss to the 76ers. Quinten Post and Trayce Jackson-Davis will once again handle the responsibilities at the center position, with the former likely taking on the heavier workload.

Post drew the starting assignment for a makeshift lineup with most of Golden State’s core sitting this one out. The 25-year-old sharpshooting big man knocked down a pair of three-pointers and pulled down a team-high nine boards. He’s capable of making an impact for fantasy purposes when given an opportunity but those spots are tough to come by unless injuries strike.

The Warriors have been decimated by injuries, resulting in multiple changes to the starting lineup. Spencer, Kuminga and Post will be in the starting lineup, with Brandin Podziemski moving to the bench while Draymond Green and Al Horford are out. Spencer, who’s totaled 33 points in his last two games, is worth streaming while Kuminga and Post will also have added fantasy value.
