Warriors Announce Small-Ball Starting Lineup Against Spurs

The Golden State Warriors will be without Stephen Curry for at least the next two weeks, which will force them to play some starting lineups they don't play often.

On Friday against the Spurs, they are going with a small-ball starting lineup featuring De'Anthony Melton, Will Richard, Brandin Podziemski, Yaxel Lendeborg and Draymond Green.

It's essentially a three-guard, two-forward lineup, but Green is used to play an undersized center role and will guard Victor Wembanyama despite being 10 inches shorter than him.

Gui Santos, who has started six of his nine appearances but has been struggling lately, will come off the bench.
