Kristaps Porziņģis Sidelined Indefinitely With Unspecified Health Issue

Golden State Warriors projected starting center Kristaps Porziņģis is sidelined indefinitely after missing training camp with a health issue, creating a major roster domino effect. Coach Steve Kerr expressed concern over the absence of the 7-foot-2 Latvian floor-spacer. With primary backup Al Horford also dealing with a pregame workout issue, the Warriors are forced to experiment with smaller lineups, leaning on Draymond Green, Charles Bassey, and rookie Yaxel Lendeborg at center.
