Before meeting the Boston Celtics at Chase Center on Monday, the Warriors provided an injury update for Green. After undergoing an MRI, Green has suffered a mild calf strain and is now set to be re-evaluated in a week. Via @warriors on Twitter:

After missing the last three games due to an illness and back injury, Draymond Green returned to the court for the Golden State Warriors on Saturday evening against Jordan Poole and the Washington Wizards.

The middle portion of the Western Conference standings is a forgiving place. The struggling Suns were blown out by the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday, leaving them tied with the Warriors at 21-21. The Minnesota Timberwolves have fallen to 22-21, and the Warriors already own the tiebreaker over them.
