What happened

The Warriors said Wednesday that Kristaps Porziņģis will remain out indefinitely because of a health-related matter, though he will stay around the team. The club still has not said what he is dealing with, and Golden State is a week from its regular-season opener in Los Angeles.

Porziņģis posted that he is working with doctors and experts to get fully healthy, adding that he is getting better and trying to stay patient. He said the health problems have been frustrating, but he expects to feel great again soon.

LINEUP CONTEXT

This keeps Porziņģis off the opening-night path and leaves Golden State’s frontcourt rotation unsettled. Until his condition is identified, the team cannot treat his availability as a confirmed part of the plan.
