Warriors' Andre Iguodala Out for NBA Finals Game 2 vs. Celtics with Knee Injury

Iguodala is out for the second game of the NBA Finals against the Boston Celtics because of a knee injury.

In the Warriors' 120-108 loss to the Celtics on Thursday, Iguodala had seven points and three assists. He hadn't played on the court since April 24 when the Warriors played the Denver Nuggets in the first round of the playoffs. He had been out for a long time because of a neck injury.

What will Steve Kerr do with Iguodala's minutes? John Dickinson of The Game gave some suggestions.

Will be interesting to see if Gary Payton II moves into Iguodala's rotation slot or if this opens up door for Steve Kerr to play Moses Moody or Jonathan Kuminga. And of course, you can never rule out possibility for Steve Kerr going to Damion Lee. https://t.co/e0wTxzEDnv

Kerr told reporters that Gary Payton II, who missed over a month with an elbow injury, would be able to play.

Andre Iguodala is listed on the most recent injury report as OUT with right knee inflammation. Steve Kerr said yesterday he anticipates Gary Payton II will be available for more than just special circumstances after not playing in Game 1.

The Warriors lost to the Celtics in the first game of the series and are trying to get back on track. Al Horford was 6 of 8 on three-pointers.

The Dubs will have to play without Iguodala as they host Boston on Sunday. The Chase Center is located in San Francisco.
