Despite playing less than 24 hours ago, the Golden State Warriors will tip-off their second night of a back-to-back on Saturday as they take on the Houston Rockets. The Warriors usually rest their veteran players under these circumstances, however Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports that all the Warriors’ usual starters will be available tonight except for Klay Thompson.
Klay Thompson is resting tonight against the Rockets. Still yet to play both sides of a back-to-back since return. No one else on the Warriors is sitting.

While Klay Thompson being ruled out is no surprise, the rest of the starting lineup being active is great news for a Warriors team looking to build some momentum after last night’s 119-111 home victory against the Chicago Bulls.
