Heading into Friday night’s NBA Cup contest against the Memphis Grizzlies, Steve Kerr opted to start Lindy Waters III alongside Stephen Curry and Andrew Wiggins in the Golden State Warriors’ backcourt. After securing the start, Waters III tallied Golden State’s first five points of the contest against the Grizzlies. However, late in the first half, Waters III appeared to suffer an injury. Before halftime, Waters III met Grizzlies forward Santi Aldama at the rim for a block. While Waters III erased the fast break layup from Aldama and the Grizzlies, the Warriors sharpshooter landed awkwardly and appeared to pick up an injury. Later in the game, Waters III was ruled out for the remainder of the contest with a left knee hyperextension. -via USA Today Sports / November 16, 2024
