On the second leg of a back-to-back at San Francisco’s Chase Center, the Golden State Warriors will be missing some key pieces off the bench against the San Antonio Spurs.
Otto Porter Jr. will join Andre Iguodala on the bench against the Spurs with left foot injury management. Iguodala will miss his ninth consecutive game with a knee injury.
Along with two veterans, the Warriors will also be without rookies Jonathan Kuminga and Moses Moody. Both 2021 first-round picks are on assignment with Golden State’s G League affiliate in Santa Cruz.

Otto Porter Jr. is out tonight against the Spurs, resting (left foot injury management) on the second night of a back-to-back. Warriors also don't have Kuminga, Moody or Iguodala.

Behind the Warriors’ core of Steph Curry, Draymond Green, Jordan Poole and Andrew Wiggins, Steve Kerr will have Juan Toscano-Anderson, Damion Lee, Nemanja Bjelica and Gary Payton II off the bench.
In Golden State’s streak-ending victory over the Phoenix Suns on Friday, both Payton II and Toscano-Anderson tallied season-high scoring totals with 19 and 17 points each.
The Warriors will meet the Spurs at 5:30 p.m. PT on Saturday evening in the Bay Area.
