What happened
Golden State ruled Charles Bassey out for Wednesday’s opener against the Lakers after he entered the day questionable with knee tendinitis.
With Kristaps Porzingis already unavailable, the Warriors face slimmer frontcourt depth, and rookie Graham Ike could enter the rotation while Yaxel Lendeborg may also see small-ball minutes.
LINEUP CONTEXT
Bassey’s absence makes Golden State’s opening-night frontcourt rotation less certain and increases the chance of additional rookie minutes.
