Leons (illness) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Friday's meeting with the Wizards.

Leons is set to return following a two-game stint on the sidelines, and he'll help fill minutes at the forward spots behind Gui Santos and Draymond Green. Leons is averaging 2.6 points and 2.0 rebounds per game this season.

Curry (thigh) is out for Friday's game against Washington.

Curry will miss another matchup due to a left thigh strain. His next chance to return will arrive Sunday in Denver.

Post (foot) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Wizards.

Post is slated for a third straight absence due to right foot injury management. Al Horford (calf) has also been downgraded to out Friday, which could once again open up more chances for Omer Yurtseven and Malevy Leons in the frontcourt.

Horford (calf) is out for Friday's game against the Wizards.

Horford is set to sit out his eighth straight game, but the Warriors are expected to release an update on his rehab Friday. Kristaps Porzingis, Draymond Green and Omer Yurtseven will continue to hold down the center spot while Horford is out.

Vukcevic (back) is questionable to play Friday against the Warriors.

If Vukcevic and Alex Sarr (toe) need to miss another game, Julian Reese could get another start, and there will be more minutes available for Anthony Gill. Check back closer to Friday's tipoff for official word on Vukcevic's status.

Johnson (foot) is questionable for Friday's game against the Warriors.

Johnson has missed Washington's last three matchups while tending to a right foot sprain. However, the fact that he's been upgraded ahead of Friday's game is a sign he's nearing a return. The team should have another update on his status closer to game time.

Coulibaly (heel) is questionable for Friday's matchup with the Warriors.

Coulibaly has been playing through the heel issue the past few games, but we'll have a better idea on his status based on his activity level at shootaround. If Coulibaly is out, more minutes will fall to Jamir Watkins and Leaky Black.

Young (quadriceps) is out for Friday's game against Golden State.

Young will remain sidelined Friday with a bruised right quadriceps. Bub Carrington should continue to see run as the team's starting point guard in Young's absence.

Sarr (toe) is questionable for Friday's game versus the Warriors.

Sarr is in danger of missing his third straight game Friday. If he can't give it a go, Tristan Vukcevic (back), Anthony Gill and Julian Reese will help pick up the slack.

Thiero (knee) won't play Friday versus the Nets.

Thiero will miss his second straight game due to the knee issue, but he's a negligible part of the rotation anyway. His next chance to suit up will come Monday against the Wizards.
