| Stephen Jackson will miss two weeks of action while recovering from a strained right hamstring, according to the Associated Press. |
Our View: Jackson will be missed by the Warriors and fantasy teams as he was averaging 19 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1.5 steals and a team-high six assists per game. |
|
|
|
| Kelenna Azubuike is dealing with the flu, which forced him to miss Monday's game at Utah, according to the SF Chronicle. |
Our View: It is uncertain if he will be ready to return for Wednesday's home game against the Lakers. He isn't much of a rebounder or defender, but averages 13.2 points per game. |

|
| Stephen Jackson injured his hamstring in Monday's game at the end of the first half, according to ESPN. |
Our View: It's unclear how severe the injury is, but he did not return to the contest. We'll keep you posted on his status. |
|
|
|
| Jamal Crawford scored a game-high 28 points on Monday to go with six assists, three rebounds, and one steal. |
Our View: This is the second time in five games that Crawford has scored 20+ since returning from his groin injury. |
|
|
|
| Andris Biedrins had a nice outing for the Warriors on Monday, racking up 17 rebounds, 14 points, three assists, and one block. |
Our View: With this game Biedrins ran his double-double streak to four games. |
|
|
|
| The Mercury News reports that guard Kelenna Azubuike is questionable for Monday night's game in Utah. |
Our View: Azubuike missed Friday night's loss to Minnesota due to flu-like symptoms. |
|
|
|
| The Mercury News reports that Corey Maggette is listed as questionable for tonight's game against the Utah Jazz. |
Our View: Maggette trails Stephen Jackson by just a tenth of a point for the team lead in scoring average, despite having missed the past 15 games with a hamstring injury. |
|
|
|
| DeMarcus Nelson has been placed on waivers by the Golden State Warriors, the Oakland Tribune reports. |
Our View: The 23-year-old Nelson enjoyed a successful career as a star on the Duke basketball team before being unselected in the 2008 NBA Draft. Averaging just over 13 minutes in 13 games with the Warriors, Nelson put up 4.1 points a game this season. He will be replaced by Jermareo Davidson, who was called up from the NBA Developmental League. |
|
|
|
| Corey Maggette was not solid in practice with the team as he attempts to come back from a strained hamstring, and he is still a few days away from returning to the team, reports the San Francisco Chronicle. |
Our View: Maggette is a solid fantasy contributor when healthy, averaging 19.1 points per game, though his .180 three-point percentage is downright ugly. |
|
|
|
| Warriors rookie Anthony Randolph will not play for the team for the time being, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. Warriors coach Don Nelson explained, "We're going to put him on ice for a while, until the assistant coaches tell me he's ready to play in an NBA game and my captains tell me he's ready. He's just going to have to grow up." |
Our View: Ouch. Randolph has had a few nice performances, but has fallen out of favor with Nelson recently for his poor practice habits. Obviously not playing means his fantasy value is non-existent. |
|
|
|
| Stephen Jackson led the Warriors with 25 points in Friday's 115-108 loss to the Timberwolves, with three rebounds, seven assists, one steal and one block. |
Our View: He also unfortunately led the Warriors with six turnovers, which contributed to their 25th loss of the season. |
