Lakers and Golden State Warriors Release Injury Reports Before Season Opener
GSW against the purple and gold season opener has been highly anticipated since the NBA schedule was released. But both teams are unfortunately dealing with multiple injuries. The Los Angeles Lakers and Golden State Warriors have released their injury reports before Wednesday’s season opener. On the Warriors side, Brandin Podziemski is OUT for tomorrow’s game. Thus, snapping his streak of consecutive games played at 98.
Anthony Slater who covers the Golden State Warriors at large for ESPN reported on all the injuries affecting both the Lakers and Warriors. Slater revealed,
“Brandin Podziemski is out for the Warriors tomorrow night in Los Angeles. Lower back soreness. He played all 82 games last season but will miss the opener this season against the Lakers.
Steph Curry is probable.
On the Lakers side: Walker Kessler is cleared for his debut vs Warriors. Collin Sexton is questionable after missing the preseason with a calf issue. Adou Thiero and Cameron Carr are out. Everyone else available.”
While Golden State fans held their breath after a recent scary incident where Stephen Curry ended up leaving an open practice prematurely. Head coach Steve Kerr says number 30 is not going to be missing time. When asked if the Warriors plan to ramp up Stephen Curry slow tomorrow versus the Lakers given general maintenance plan, ankle tweak this weekend. Nope. Kerr simply replied, “He’s ready to go.”

So then. Steph will NOT be on a minute restriction and will start. Moreover, Curry spoke with Stephen A Smith about the upcoming season. Steph Curry says the biggest obstacle to the Warriors’ success this year is being healthy.
Stephen mentions, “It’s health. I mean, I missed whatever, so many games last year. We got KP, Al, Draymond, you know, guys who know how to win big games when it matters. And for us, if we can stay healthy, have a consistent lineup as much as possible throughout the regular season, I feel like we showed enough last year. And when guys were missing, also, you saw how much it hurt. So, every team needs health on their side. I think some more than others. And I know everybody’s working to prepare themselves for the gauntlet of an NBA season coming up. Let’s go get it.”
