The Athletic’s Anthony Slater reports that Warriors forward Otto Porter Jr. will not play in Tuesday’s clash against the Knicks at Madison Square Garden.
Otto Porter is resting tonight. No other surprises on the Warriors’ injury report. Steph Curry, Draymond Green, Andre Iguodala are all playing against the Knicks.
Porter’s absence isn’t injury-related, as the Warriors are simply opting to give him the night off. However, the timing does seem a bit coordinated given that G-State head coach Steve Kerr said that his rookie forward, Jonathan Kuminga, deserves more minutes on the court.
