Tue Jan 14 00:10:00 UTC 2025: ## Warriors Face Injury-Plagued Pacers in Back-to-Back Game
**Indianapolis, IN** – The Golden State Warriors will take on the Indiana Pacers tonight at 7:00 p.m. EST in a crucial matchup, but both teams will be significantly shorthanded due to injuries. This is the second game of a back-to-back for the Warriors, who defeated the Detroit Pistons on Thursday.
Golden State’s injury report is extensive, with Steph Curry (bilateral knee injury management), Draymond Green, Andrew Wiggins, Jonathan Kuminga, Gary Payton II, and Brandin Podziemski all ruled out. Moses Moody is listed as probable, and Trayce Jackson-Davis is questionable. Curry’s absence is particularly notable given the back-to-back schedule.
The Pacers are also dealing with a significant injury crisis. Tyrese Haliburton (right ankle sprain) is questionable, while James Wiseman (left Achilles tendon tear), Aaron Nesmith (left ankle sprain), and Isaiah Jackson (right Achilles tendon tear) are all out. RayJ Dennis, Enrique Freeman, and Quenton Jackson, all on two-way contracts, are also questionable.
The game marks the second and final meeting between the two teams this season, with the Pacers winning the first encounter. A Warriors victory would even the series. The extent of the injuries on both sides promises a challenging game for both teams.
