Waters reached double-digit points for the fifth time this campaign. He had the hot hand Sunday and played more minutes than Brandin Podziemski as a result. The Warriors are looking for a spark, as they've lost seven of their past eight games. Waters is worth keeping an eye on in fantasy leagues going forward.

Waters reached double-digit points for the fifth time this campaign. He had the hot hand Sunday and played more minutes than Brandin Podziemski as a result. The Warriors are looking for a spark, as they've lost seven of their past eight games. Waters is worth keeping an eye on in fantasy leagues going forward.
Solid outing off bench

Coming off bench Saturday
Waters is not in the Warriors' starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Suns, John Dickinson of 95.7 The Game San Francisco reports. Waters has started in the Warriors' last seven games, and over that span he averaged 7.4 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1.1 assists over 22.0 minutes per contest. However, Waters will retreat to the bench for Saturday's game due to the Warriors inserting Brandin Podziemski into the starting lineup.
Starting Saturday vs. Spurs
Waters (illness) is in the Warriors' starting lineup for Saturday's game against San Antonio. Waters was added to Saturday's injury report due to an illness, but the fourth-year forward will be able to play. Over his last four games in the Warriors' starting lineup, Waters has averaged 6.0 points, 2.0 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.0 steals over 19.3 minutes per game. He could see a slight uptick in playing time Saturday due to Jonathan Kuminga (illness) being sidelined.
Dealing with illness
Waters is listed as probable for Saturday's game against the Spurs due to illness. Waters is battling an illness, but the issue isn't expected to keep him out of Saturday's contest. The 27-year-old has started in four straight games, averaging 6.0 points, 2.0 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.0 steals across 19.3 minutes during that stretch.
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.

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.
