| Tue Mar 31 | 20:58 | Kristaps Porzingis Ruled Out Wednesday |
Golden State Warriors forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (illness) will not play Wednesday against San Antonio, leaving the team thin in the frontcourt. With Al Horford (calf) and Quinten Post (foot) also unavailable, Draymond Green could see more time at center after finishing with 13 points, eight assists, and four rebounds in 30 minutes last game. Omer Yurtseven may also pick up situational minutes, though his role remains uncertain. Porzingis' absence could also open extra run for Malevy Leons. Fantasy managers should expect Golden State to rely more on Green's versatility in small-ball looks. |

| Mon Mar 23 | 21:05 | Kristaps Porzingis Ready to Rock Monday |
Golden State Warriors forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (back) will play on Monday night against the Dallas Mavericks. The team initially listed Porzingis as probable for the game after he sat out Saturday's loss to Atlanta with a back issue.

With Al Horford (calf) and Quinten Post (foot) in street clothes on Monday, Porzingis will have a crucial role to play in the Warriors' frontcourt. He will make his fourth start with the team. |

| Sat Mar 21 | 18:52 | Kristaps Porzingis Out Saturday Against Hawks |
Golden State Warriors forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (back) will not play Saturday against Atlanta after exiting Friday's loss to Detroit because of back tightness. With Draymond Green (back) and Quinten Post (foot) available, both could help cover frontcourt minutes. Green finished with five rebounds, six assists, one steal, and one block in 22 minutes Friday and offers value in deeper formats for defensive stats and assists. Post is more of a speculative deep-league option after producing six points, five rebounds, and three assists in his previous appearance. Gui Santos should also continue seeing steady minutes as a secondary option. |

| Sat Mar 21 | 09:11 | Kristaps Porzingis Exits Early, Likely Out Saturday |
Golden State Warriors forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (back) is expected to miss Saturday's game against Atlanta after exiting Friday's loss to Detroit early, finishing with five points, three rebounds, and two blocks in 11 minutes. His absence could open short-term streaming value in deeper formats. Omer Yurtseven posted eight points, six rebounds, and two assists in 21 minutes Friday and could see another workload bump. Quinten Post (foot), if cleared, is another deep-league option. Brandin Podziemski and Gui Santos may also see added usage. |

| Sun Mar 15 | 10:50 | Kristaps Porzingis Won't Play Sunday Versus Knicks |
Golden State Warriors forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (illness) will not play Sunday against the Knicks as the team continues to manage his recent health issues, with a possible return targeted for Monday. His absence, along with injuries to Draymond Green (back) and Al Horford (calf), leaves Golden State thin in the frontcourt. Gui Santos could continue seeing heavy minutes after producing 17 points, three rebounds, eight assists, and one steal in 35 minutes last game, and with how he's trending lately, he looks like a solid fantasy option for the stretch run. Quinten Post (ankle) may also see more run if available, though he remains a risky deep league option given the uncertain rotation. |

Golden State Warriors forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (illness) is available for Tuesday's matchup with the Chicago Bulls. Porzingis returns to the Warriors' rotation after sitting out Monday's loss to the Utah Jazz for maintenance. The 30-year-old recently returned to action in Saturday's loss to Oklahoma City following a six-game absence, finishing with nine points, five rebounds, five assists and one block in 23 minutes. However, he will likely remain on a minutes restriction as the team continues to ease him back into the lineup. |

Golden State Warriors forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (illness) will be limited to around 15-20 minutes on Saturday against the Oklahoma City Thunder, ESPN's Anthony Slater reports. Golden State will ease the Latvian veteran back into action after he missed six games due to illness. Still, Porzingis could make a significant impact even with limited minutes. He has averaged only a little over 20 minutes per game this season (23.9), posting 16.8 points, 4.9 rebounds, 2.6 assists, and 1.3 blocks. |

Golden State Warriors forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (illness) has been cleared to return to action on Saturday against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He has sat out six games due to illness. Porzingis was knocked out by the illness just after making his Warriors debut. He managed 12 points, one rebound, one assist, and one block across 17 minutes in a matchup with Boston. Golden State is battling several injuries, so Porzingis could be a central figure in Saturday's game. |

| Mon Mar 2 | 09:13 | Kristaps Porzingis to Miss Fifth Straight Game |
Golden State Warriors forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (illness) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Clippers, marking his fifth straight absence. Porzingis practiced Friday but will remain sidelined until at least Thursday against Houston. In his absence, Draymond Green and Al Horford continue to anchor the frontcourt. Horford logged 22 minutes with eight points, five rebounds, and two triples in the last game, while Quinten Post added eight points and seven rebounds in 13 minutes. Horford is more of a fringe deep-league play at this stage, while Post remains a risky, speculative option best reserved for managers chasing rebounds in very deep formats. |

| Fri Feb 27 | 21:44 | Kristaps Porzingis Questionable Vs. Lakers |
Golden State Warriors forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (illness) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Lakers after practicing Friday as he looks to end a three-game absence. Porzingis appeared in one game since joining Golden State, posting 12 points with two triples and one block in 17 minutes, flashing immediate fantasy upside. If active alongside Draymond Green (back), Porzingis would likely cut into Al Horford's minutes and could push Quinten Post out of the rotation. Horford's short-term value would take a hit, while Porzingis carries clear upside if fully cleared. |

| Tue Feb 24 | 07:18 | Kristaps Porzingis to Miss Two More Games |
Golden State Warriors forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (illness) won't be in action during the team's upcoming back-to-back set. According to ESPN's Anthony Slater, the Latvian veteran hasn't traveled with the team. Golden State hit the road to face the New Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday and the Memphis Grizzlies the following day. After recovering from an Achilles issue, Porzingis finally made his Warriors debut last week, but he couldn't play on Sunday against Denver due to illness. Quinten Post and Al Horford (toe) are in line for more playing time without Porzingis, though the latter is considered questionable for Tuesday's matchup. |

| Sun Feb 22 | 14:01 | Kristaps Porzingis Ruled Out on Sunday |
Golden State Warriors center Kristaps Porzingis (illness) won't play on Sunday versus Denver. He was listed as probable on the injury report for left Achilles injury management. However, the veteran woke up early on Sunday and was feeling "pretty sick." Porzingis has appeared in only one game for the Dubs since being acquired ahead of the deadline, amassing 12 points in 17 minutes off the bench in the loss to Boston on Thursday. It's unknown if he'll be available for the Warriors' upcoming two-game road trip. In the meantime, Al Horford may take on more minutes after finishing with five points, eight boards, four assists, and one block against the Celtics. |

| Sun Feb 22 | 07:39 | Kristaps Porzingis On Track To Play Sunday |
Golden State Warriors forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (Achilles) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against Denver and is expected to come off the bench again with increased minutes. The 30-year-old made his team debut Thursday, finishing with 12 points on 5-of-9 shooting, two threes, one rebound, one assist, and one block in 17 minutes. If his minutes tick up, he becomes even more secure in standard leagues, especially with Stephen Curry (knee) out. There's obvious injury risk baked in with Porzingis, so he comes with volatility, but a 29.0 percent usage rate shows the upside is real when he's on the floor. Draymond Green and Al Horford could see slight role shifts as the rotation settles. |

| Wed Feb 18 | 21:47 | Kristaps Porzingis Listed as Questionable, Expects to Play on Thursday |
Golden State Warriors center Kristaps Porzingis (Achilles) is listed as questionable for Thursday's contest against the Boston Celtics, but he told reporters he plans to make his debut with the team. Porzingis was traded to the Warriors from the Atlanta Hawks at this season's trade deadline after playing just 17 games with them. Many expect Porzingis to be the perfect fit with the Warriors, barring health. The former fourth-overall pick has averaged 19.6 points per game in his career, shooting over 36% from three in each of the last four seasons. With Porzingis expected to play, centers Al Horford and Quinten Post should see fewer minutes moving forward, while Porzingis should be more of a factor from a fantasy perspective. |

| Wed Feb 18 | 07:21 | Kristaps Porzingis Practices With Warriors |
Golden State Warriors forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (Achilles) practiced on Tuesday, ESPN's Anthony Slater reports. He is also scheduled to take part in a team scrimmage on Wednesday. This suggests Porzingis could be ready to make his team debut on Thursday against his former squad, the Boston Celtics. The Latvian veteran hasn't played since Jan. 7 due to an Achilles issue. He had a decent start to the campaign with the Atlanta Hawks, recording 17.1 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.7 assists, and 1.3 blocks per game. Gui Santos may find himself on the bench when Porzingis returns, significantly lowering his fantasy appeal. |

| Sun Feb 8 | 06:59 | Kristaps Porzingis Targeting Post-All-Star Break Debut |
Golden State Warriors forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (Achilles) is expected to wait until after the All-Star break to make his team debut as the organization continues to prioritize a cautious ramp-up. The 30-year-old big man has yet to suit up following his trade and remains in recovery mode. His delayed return keeps Golden State's frontcourt stable for now, with Draymond Green and Al Horford holding steady roles. Gui Santos has quietly emerged as a fantasy-relevant piece, averaging 15.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 4.3 assists over his last three starts. Santos profiles as a short-term deep-league add, while Porzingis remains a stash with clear shutdown risk baked in. |

There is also a quiet opportunity on the wing, where Gui Santos has earned consecutive starts and averaged 15.5 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 5.0 assists across his last two games. |

| Fri Feb 6 | 08:19 | Kristaps Porzingis Unlikely to Debut Saturday vs. Lakers |
Golden State Warriors forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (illness) traveled with the team to Los Angeles on Friday but is unlikely to play Saturday against the Lakers as he continues to recover. Acquired on Wednesday in a trade that sent Jonathan Kuminga and Buddy Hield out, Porzingis has not appeared since Jan. 7. He has played just 17 games this season, averaging 17.1 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.8 three-pointers, and 1.3 blocks in 24.3 minutes. When healthy, Porzingis would command significant frontcourt usage, reducing Al Horford's minutes and easing the scoring burden on Stephen Curry, though durability remains a concern. |

| Thu Feb 5 | 07:49 | Warriors Acquire Kristaps Porzingis |
Forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (illness) will end the season with the Golden State Warriors, who acquired him from the Atlanta Hawks in exchange for Jonathan Kuminga and Buddy Hield. The Warriors attempted to lure Giannis Antetokounmpo away from the Milwaukee Bucks but failed, settling for the Latvian big man. According to ESPN's Anthony Slater and Shams Charania, Porzingis has been on Golden State's radar since his Boston days. Unfortunately, it has been another season marked by health issues for Porzingis, who appeared in only 17 games for the Hawks after they brought him in from Boston in the summer. He has done well when healthy, averaging 17.1 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.7 assists, and 1.3 blocks. Golden State sees him as a good fit in the frontcourt next to Draymond Green, so Porzingis could enjoy a big finish to the season if he can stay healthy. |
