Will Richard To Play Through UCL Tear
After previously being upgraded to probable, Will Richard will suit up for the Warriors in their matchup against the Rockets on Wednesday, Anthony Slater writes for ESPN (via Twitter).
Richard was previously diagnosed with a torn UCL in his thumb, an injury that can be played through or addressed via surgery. After testing the injury during shootaround, the 23-year-old guard has opted to try to play through the injury with the use of a splint on his left thumb.
If the injury continues to bother him, Richard will have to undergo surgery and miss extended time, notes Nick Friedell of The Athletic (Twitter link).
