Warriors forward Jimmy Butler is undergoing intensive, around-the-clock treatment for a deep thigh contusion sustained during Sunday’s matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers.
Despite the injury, all signs point to Butler being ready to suit up for the high-stakes Play-In game against the Memphis Grizzlies on Tuesday night.
NBA insider Shams Charania expressed confidence in Butler’s availability, stating, “I trust him to play.” His presence will be crucial as the team looks to secure a postseason berth.
Meanwhile, Stephen Curry is also expected to be in the lineup for the Warriors, even as he continues to manage a right thumb injury. Curry’s resilience and ability to perform through discomfort could prove pivotal in the upcoming game.
Should the Golden State Warriors manage to defeat the Grizzlies, they’ll move on to face the Houston Rockets, with a shot at advancing further in the playoff picture.
