The Warriors went 7-5 in Inexperienced’s absence, however with rumors of Jonathan Kuminga (who changed Inexperienced within the beginning lineup) shedding religion in Warriors’ head coach Steve Kerr’s capability to get Kuminga to his full potential, Inexperienced’s return can’t come quickly sufficient. Golden State at present sits on the 10 seed within the West, 8.5 video games again of top-seeded Minnesota.
Inexperienced’s precise return to the beginning lineup has not been made public but, however the Warriors have house video games towards the Raptors on Jan. 7 and the New Orleans Pelicans on Jan. 10 earlier than starting a four-game highway journey.
