Warriors' Gary Payton II Out 'A Long Time' With Elbow Injury, Steve Kerr Says

The Golden State Warriors aren't expecting guard Gary Payton II to return to the court in the near future.

"He's going to be out for a long time," head coach Steve Kerr told reporters. "He's crushed. ... We all feel terrible for Gary."

Anthony Slater of The Athletic reported Payton suffered a fractured left elbow when Memphis Grizzlies guard Dillon Brooks fouled him hard in transition during Game 2 of their second-round playoff series. Brooks was given a flagrant-2 foul and ejected from the contest.
