The Golden State Warriors are back on the road tonight for a cross-conference showdown against the Indiana Pacers. Golden State has opened the season strong with a 4-2 record, while Indiana remains winless at 0-5 and desperate for momentum. On paper, it looks like an easy win for the Dubs, but things may not be that simple. Questions continue to swirl around Stephen Curry’s status, and fans are anxious to see if he’ll play tonight.

Golden State Warriors injury report ahead of their clash with Indiana

The Warriors appear stronger than the Haliburton-less Pacers, but their recent loss to Milwaukee proved they can’t take any opponent lightly. Fortunately for Golden State, Stephen Curry is expected to suit up tonight. The two-time MVP is all set to play against Indiana and will look to lead the Warriors with another strong performance as they aim to bounce back on the road.

Despite suffering a disappointing 120-110 loss against Milwaukee, Curry’s performance was among the few bright spots for the Dubs. The 37-year-old guard put up 27 points along with 6 rebounds and 4 assists while shooting 42.1 percent from the field and 40 percent from deep. So, Stephen Curry will be hoping he’s able to emulate a similar performance tonight at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse. However, while he’s all set to take part in tonight’s action, the Dubs will miss a couple of their key players.

This includes guard De’Anthony Melton and rookie Alex Toohey. Melton will be continuing his rehab after being assigned to the franchise’s Santa Cruz Warriors and being recalled on Friday. Meanwhile, Toohey will be on the sidelines once again due to a knee injury. The 21-year-old second-round pick in this season’s draft has yet to make an appearance for the team.

The Pacers enter the matchup with several injury concerns. Guards Taelon Peter and Johnny Furphy are listed as probables, leaving their availability uncertain. Meanwhile, Andrew Nembhard has been ruled out until November 3, and forward Obi Toppin is sidelined long-term with an expected return in February. Bennedict Mathurin also remains unavailable, and all of this is in addition to the long-term injuries the Pacers are dealing.

Now that we know about the Warriors’ injuries, let us look at their starting five.

Here’s the lineup of the two teams:

By the looks of it, Curry is set to lead the lines for the Dubs tonight. Meanwhile, Jimmy Butler and Jonathan Kuminga will be backing him up offensively.
