Melton (back) will miss Golden State's next three contests, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports. Melton is dealing with inflammation in his lower back that will force him to extend his absence streak to at least five games. In his absence, Lindy Waters and Moses Moody are candidates to continue receiving increased playing time. Melton's next chance to suit up is against Cleveland on Nov. 8.

Melton (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Rockets. Melton is dealing with inflammation in his lower back and will miss a third consecutive game Saturday. With the 26-year-old and Stephen Curry (ankle) both out, Lindy Waters and Moses Moody are candidates for an increased role. In three regular-season appearances, Melton has averaged 6.3 points, 2.7 assists, 1.7 steals-plus-blocks and 1.3 rebounds across 16.7 minutes per game.

Melton (back) won't play Tuesday against the Pelicans or Wednesday for a rematch against the Pelicans, the Warriors announced Monday. Melton is dealing with a strained lower back, but imaging revealed no structural damage. Melton will be re-evaluated Friday, so he should be considered questionable for Saturday's game against Houston. Stephen Curry (ankle) is out and Andrew Wiggins (back) is questionable Tuesday, so Brandin Podziemski and Buddy Hield could see their fantasy appeal increase significantly.

Melton (chest) is available for Friday's game against the Jazz. Melton was initially listed as questionable Thursday due to a chest contusion and was later upgraded to probable, so the positive trend continued to the point that he'll be available for this contest. That said, Melton's fantasy upside shouldn't be very high since he's opening the season as a bench alternative in the backcourt behind Brandin Podziemski.

Melton (chest) has been upgraded to probable ahead of Friday's matchup versus the Jazz. Melton is dealing with a chest contusion, though he will likely suit up. The 26-year-old is expected to continue with his role off the bench, and his fantasy upside is fairly low as the Warriors and coach Steve Kerr have expressed interest in playing a 12-man rotation -- at least to begin the year.
