Warriors' Draymond Green: Iffy for Tuesday
Rotowire
Green (back) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Bulls.
Green could miss the second leg of this back-to-back set for injury maintenance related to a lower-back issue. During Monday's loss to Utah, Green finished with six points (2-7 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds and 11 assists in 32 minutes.
Green accumulated six points (2-7 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds and 11 assists in 32 minutes during Monday's 119-116 loss to the Jazz.
The 11 dimes were Green's most since the Jan. 5 loss to the Clippers. The veteran forward remains a relatively low-end fantasy option, averaging 9.4 points, 6.1 assists, 4.8 rebounds and 1.7 three-pointers in 29.2 minutes per tilt in his last 10 games while shooting just 41.7 percent from the field during this span.

Warriors' Draymond Green: Helps fuel overtime win
Rotowire
Green totaled 10 points (4-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds, eight assists and one steal in 35 minutes during Thursday's 115-113 overtime win over Houston.
Green was back in his element Thursday, orchestrating the offense and finishing with a team-high eight assists in the narrow victory. The veteran continues to provide unique across-the-board value for fantasy managers, as he has now averaged 9.0 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 5.6 assists over his last eight appearances. As long as he can avoid the "injury management" tag on the second half of back-to-backs, Green remains a safe high-floor play in most formats.

Green missed Wednesday's win over Memphis -- the second leg of a back-to-back set -- due to lower-back injury management.

Warriors' Draymond Green: Likely to play Saturday
Rotowire
Green (back) is expected to play in Saturday's game against the Lakers, per Nick Friedell of The Athletic.
Green practiced Friday, signaling that he's feeling better after sitting out Wednesday's contest against Memphis. With Kristaps Porzingis (illness) also appearing to be close to a return, Quinten Post is likely to be phased out of the Golden State rotation entirely if both Porzingis and Green are available Saturday.

Rotowire

Warriors' Draymond Green: Questionable for Wednesday
Rotowire
Green is questionable for Wednesday's game in Memphis due to left lower back injury management.
Wednesday's game will be the second of a back-to-back set, so there's a decent chance Green will be watching from the sidelines after logging 32 minutes in Tuesday's loss to the Pelicans. If Green is out, Al Horford, Quinten Post and Gui Santos will see a boost.

Green (back) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Pelicans.
Green was a late scratch from Sunday's contest due to a lower-back injury, leaving his status for Tuesday up in the air.

Warriors' Draymond Green: Quiet showing Thursday
Rotowire
Green provided five points (1-3 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and one assist across 24 minutes during Thursday's 101-97 win over the Suns.
It's worth noting that Green sat out late during Golden State's fourth-quarter comeback in favor of Al Horford at center. Fantasy managers will want to monitor the situation to see if head coach Steve Kerr was simply riding a hot-hand approach, or if Thursday was a sign Green's playing time could begin dwindling after he was dangled around in trade talks. With Kristaps Porzingis' (Achilles) arrival also looming, Green's fantasy arrow appears to be pointing down.

Warriors' Draymond Green: Breaks out of shooting slump
Rotowire
Green contributed 15 points (5-10 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds and seven assists across 33 minutes before fouling out of Friday's 131-124 loss to the Pistons.
After going 0-for-14 from three-point range over his prior four games and scoring just 12 combined points, Green suddenly found a groove from long distance. It's a good sign for the health of his back, which has been hampering him of late, but the veteran big also dealt with a sore ankle in January. Green missed just three of the Warriors' 16 games on the month, and he averaged 8.2 points, 5.4 assists, 5.0 boards, 1.4 threes and 1.3 combined steals-plus-blocks in 25.3 minutes.

Warriors' Draymond Green: Iffy for Monday
Rotowire
Green (back) is questionable for Monday's game against Minnesota.
Green logged 23 minutes on the front end of this back-to-back set Sunday night, but he had a quiet showing with two points to his name. If he's given the night off for maintenance, the Warriors could turn to guys like Gui Santos and Quinten Post.
