Warriors need vintage Andre Iguodala if Klay Thompson is out

Klay Thompson suffered a knee injury during Thursday’s game against the Orlando Magic and sat out Saturday’s game against the Philadelphia 76ers, but fortunately, his most recent MRI results were encouraging as the Golden State Warriors guard isn’t expected to miss much time.

Thompson is expected to be day-to-day with a return based on how quickly he regains range of motion in his knee, league sources said. https://t.co/VmxG2xu1n9

The Warriors will likely be cautious with their All-Star marksman, but his absence leaves the team with a significant hole in the starting five.

Alfonzo McKinnie assumed the starting shooting guard spot on Saturday against the Sixers, but the Warriors will need more from that position in case Thompson misses an extended period of time.
