The middle portion of the Western Conference standings is a forgiving place. The struggling Suns were blown out by the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday, leaving them tied with the Warriors at 21-21. The Minnesota Timberwolves have fallen to 22-21, and the Warriors already own the tiebreaker over them.

Green remains a critical part of the Warriors' success, especially more on offense this season as a facilitator.

Draymond Green's calf injury adds to Warriors' struggles. Awaiting MRI results, his return date is uncertain ahead of important games.

Draymond Green left the Golden State Warriors ' game last night vs. the Washington Wizards with calf tightness, and with the exact timetable for his return uncertain, Steve Kerr is likely turning to one of his young players to fill in for Green.

The Golden State Warriors have been hit hard with the injury bug in recent weeks. Among the Warriors’ primary concerns is the recent calf injury suffered by Draymond Green. Green is currently sidelined due to the injury, and on Monday the team released an update on a potential timetable for the injury.

In Green’s absence, Gui Santos started the second half, but the stint was brief. Moses Moody entered three minutes into the third quarter and, for a second straight game, logged a bulk of the team’s minutes at the power forward spot.

Golden State Warriors power forward Draymond Green has a mild calf strain and will be reevaluated in one week, according to Anthony Slater of The Athletic.

Following Poole's comments, Warriors forward Draymond Green took to Twitter to respond to his former teammate's quote. Green responded to a tweet from Marc J. Spears of ESPN with an apology for Poole.

Poole obviously has a lot of love for the Warriors and his time with the team—he was part of the 2022 NBA championship, for instance. However, his time with Golden State is often overshadowed by one incident with Draymond Green.

A blowout loss to the Celtics should have the Warriors considering the path Boston took to become the powerhouse it is today.
