Game Thread: Klay out, Spurs resting a bunch of dudes
Warriors strategically rotating rest for key players over these last games
The Golden State Warriors still have an outside shot at the 3rd seed. Given that possibility, and the threadbare roster that precludes a real game off for the main rotation, it appears as if coach Steve Kerr is holding Klay Thompson out tonight.
No Klay Thompson tonight in San Antonio, resting on the front side of the back-to-back. Andre Iguodala and Otto Porter Jr. will play, then rest in New Orleans tomorrow.
Not to be outdone, San Antonio Spurs coach, Gregg Popovich is on board with the plan, and his injury list is as extensive tonight as a list of his career accolades:
The Spurs are missing A LOT of key players tonight against the Warriors: Dejounte Murray, Keldon Johnson, Devin Vassell and Jakob Poeltl are all out, along with Doug McDermott and Romeo Langford is listed as questionable
LET'S GOOOOO!!!
