Warriors vs. Rockets Game 6 injury report

The full injury report for tonight’s game.

It’s time for Game 6 between the Golden State Warriors and the Houston Rockets. After a blowout loss on Wednesday, the Dubs return home Friday night to host the young and athletic second seed. Win, and they move on to the Western Conference Semifinals, and a date with the Minnesota Timberwolves. Lose, and it’s back to Houston for a critical Game 7 on Sunday.

Needless to say, it’s a huge game. And it’s one where both teams should be able to put their best foot forward, with healthy rosters.

Here’s the full injury report.

Warriors

Available — Steph Curry (right thumb splint)
Available — Gary Payton II (left thumb splint)

Curry and Payton have been on the injury report all series, but there’s never really been a concern that they wouldn’t play. Notably, they’re the only players on the injury report. Jonathan Kuminga, who missed Game 5 due to an illness, isn’t listed, and neither is Jimmy Butler III, even though he’s still a little compromised by his pelvic contusion. The Warriors will be at full strength tonight, and at home ... so the stage is set for them to perform.

Rockets

Out — Jock Landale (right knee contusion)

Landale was out for the first four games of the series, but was available in Game 5, and played five minutes off the bench. He won’t be able to do that tonight, as he’s headed back to the sidelines.

Out — Jae’Sean Tate (right ankle impingement)

Tate has been out for the whole series. He was unlikely to play a meaningful role, so it hasn’t impacted Houston much.

Enjoy the game, Dub Nation! The action is scheduled to tip off at 6:00 p.m. PT on ESPN.
