Warriors guards Stephen Curry and De’Anthony Melton will sit out their third consecutive game when Golden State faces the Houston Rockets on Saturday.
Both have been out since Sunday.
That night, Curry sustained a peroneal strain in his left ankle against the LA Clippers that forced him to exit in the fourth quarter. Melton also left in the fourth because of a back strain.
Melton dealt with multiple back injuries last season, which Warriors coach Steve Kerr said would play a role in how the team approached the current ailment with which Melton is dealing.
Andrew Wiggins is considered probable for Saturday’s game at Houston as he deals with a lower back injury.
