Lindy Waters Latest News
Available Monday
Waters (knee) is listed as available for Monday's game against the Clippers. Waters hyperextended his left knee during Friday's win over Memphis, though he is set to play in Monday's contest. The 27-year-old has averaged 3.0 points, 1.2 rebounds and 1.2 assists across 12.2 minutes per game in his last five appearances.
On track to play
Waters (knee) is expected to play Monday night against the Clippers, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports. Waters was added to the team's injury report as questionable due to a left knee injury, but the issue is unlikely to keep him out of Monday's action. He's averaging 3.0 points, 1.2 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 12.2 minutes over his last five contests.
Avoids serious injury
Waters (knee) is questionable for Monday's game against the Clippers, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports. Waters took a scary fall during Friday's win over Memphis but has avoided a long-term injury. The undrafted wing got the first crack in the starting lineup following De'Anthony Melton (knee) going on the shelf, but the Warriors have a deep rotation this year and may continue to switch things up based on matchups.
Won't return Friday
Waters will not return to Friday's game against the Grizzlies due to a left knee hyperextension, Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area reports. Waters went to the locker room in the second quarter after suffering a left knee injury, and he will not return to Friday's contest. Brandin Podziemski started in the second half and Jonathan Kuminga and Buddy Hield should see increased playing time off the bench.
Leaves game with knee injury
Waters (knee) went to the locker room in the second quarter of Friday's game against the Grizzlies, Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area reports. Waters was seen grabbing his left knee, though he did not need help going back to the locker room. For as long as Waters is sidelined Friday, Brandin Podziemski, Buddyhield and Jonathan Kuminga are all candidates to see an uptick in playing time.
Starting Friday
Waters is in the Warriors' starting lineup for Friday's game against Memphis, Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports Bay Area reports. Waters will make his second start of the 2024-25 regular season Friday due to De'Anthony Melton being sidelined with a sprained left ACL. In Waters' first start Oct. 30 against the Pelicans, he finished with three points, three assists, one rebound, one steal and one block across 30 minutes.
Back to bench Saturday
Waters is not in the Warriors' starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Rockets. Waters will retreat to the bench Saturday as Andrew Wiggins is inserted into the starting five after missing the last two games due to a back injury. Waters started in the Warriors' 104-89 win over the Pelicans on Wednesday and finished with three points, three assists, one rebound, one block and one steal across 30 minutes.
Struggles with first unit
Waters logged three points (1-5 FG, 1-5 3Pt), one rebound, three assists, one block and one steal over 30 minutes during Wednesday's 104-89 win over New Orleans. The absences of Stephen Curry (ankle) and Andrew Wiggins (back) has forced coach Steve Kerr to explore the team's depth. He opted for Lindy Waters to start over Buddy Hield after a good performance off the bench in the first game against the Pelicans. The success was not replicated in the rematch, and Waters struggled for much of his 30 minutes on the floor. Waters may have avoided a trip back to the G League based on his early success, but he'll sink down the depth chart once the team is fully healthy.
Starting nod Wednesday
Waters is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against New Orleans, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports. Waters gets the start with Stephen Curry (ankle) and Andrew Wiggins (back) sidelined. Wednesday will mark Waters first start since his rookie season in 2021-22, but after a 21-point (8-13 FG, 3-7 3Pt) outburst Tuesday, coach Steve Kerr will go with the hot hand.
