The Golden State Warriors face the Toronto Raptors on Sunday at Scotiabank Arena. The team is coming off a 108-96 defeat against the Indiana Pacers, where it was without its superstar, Stephen Curry.
Curry is not on the injury report despite missing that matchup and is ready to take the court on Sunday. The star guard has been sidelined for eight games this season due to injuries but has featured in 30 contests so far. During those appearances, he has averaged 22.6 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 6.1 assists per game.
Although the Warriors were unbeaten during the preseason, their regular season has been a different story. With a 19-19 record, the team finds itself in 10th place in the Western Conference. The upcoming clash is a critical opportunity for the Warriors to reignite their playoff aspirations and stay on track toward their championship goals.
The Warriors will face additional challenges due to injuries. Gary Payton II (calf), Brandin Podziemski (abdominal), and Jonathan Kuminga (ankle) are all ruled out, while Draymond Green’s status remains questionable due to a back issue. The Raptors, on the other hand, will be playing with a fully healthy roster.
