As one superstar came back from injury, another one went down for the Golden State Warriors. Stephen Curry made a return to the Warriors lineup a few days ago after an unfortunate leg injury. But as Steph was finding his footing again, another Warriors star went down with an injury during the game against the Milwaukee Bucks and he was rushed to the locker room immediately, sending Dubnation into a frenzy. 

With over eight minutes left to play in the third quarter, the Warriors were leading the Bucks by 10 points. However, that lead was soon jeopardized as Draymond Green suffered an injury to his right ankle. 

The injury bug bit the Warriors again

As the Golden State Warriors brought the ball up on offense, Draymond Green tried to make a cut to the basket for an easy two points. That play immediately took a turn for the worse as Green ended up twisting his ankle by stepping on the heel of Jrue Holiday’s foot. 

The 6’6 forward instantly excluded himself from the play, which forced head coach Steve Kerr to call a timeout in order to assess the situation. Green could be seen in a lot of pain and agony as he limped off the court.

Forced to Smell Draymond Green’s Armpit, NBA Player Becomes Shaquille O’Neal and Charles Barkley’s Latest Target

Warriors Fans cursed their luck after another injury doomed the team. One fan tweeted, “Bruh. We are f***ed.”

While another fan commented, “Waive the championship repeat goodbye if he misses games- would that finally drag Wiggs from his patient family focus back to the floor?”

Here are a few more reactions from fans on Twitter.

A majority of the fans seemed to have lost hope for the Warriors’ season. However, the win against the Bucks helped shift their focus away from Green’s injury.

Will Stephen Curry and the squad be able to hold their own?

The Warriors were 34-33 this season heading into the game against the Bucks. While the team had managed to hold its ground in Stephen Curry’s absence, it would be hard to do the same without Green.

Draymond Green is the team’s defensive anchor. The Warriors have plenty of players to take on the offensive load. However, the same cannot be said for their defense. In fact, after the injury to Green, the Bucks were able to overcome the 10-point deficit. Not only that, but they managed to take the lead in the same quarter. However, the team rallied in OT to get a much-needed win.

After getting evaluated in the locker room, Green did manage to make his way back onto the court. Yet fans are on the edge of their seats, waiting for an official report to come in. The Warriors moved to the 6th seed with the win and fans will be hoping the team can build on this success.
