Gary Payton II Out On Saturday
1 year agoGolden State Warriors guard/forward Gary Payton II (foot) won't play Saturday versus the Thunder. He hurt his left foot in another meeting with Oklahoma City on Thursday and will be forced to watch things from the sidelines for the second time this season. Payton II has averaged 17.3 minutes off the bench, posting 6.0 points with 3.0 rebounds and 1.2 steals. His injury should be another opportunity for Brandin Podziemsk to log extra action. The 20-year-old rookie has broken into the rotation lately, averaging 18 points in 32 minutes with 7.5 rebounds and 4.0 assists across the past two games. Moses Moody should also feature more with Payton II out of commission.
