The Warriors were poised to be without three starters until the NBA released new health and safety protocols.
Updated Covid-19 health and safety protocols issued by the NBA on Monday have cleared the way for forward Andrew Wiggins to return to the Golden State Warriors.
In a memo distributed to teams Monday, the NBA said vaccinated players who are asymptomatic can exit quarantine after six days if they produce Covid-19 testing data that shows they are no longer infectious. Wiggins said Monday he dealt with “A little sore throat, maybe a light headache,” for about a day, but noted he avoided any severe symptoms.
While Wiggins is slated to return to the starting lineup on Tuesday, guard Jordan Poole remained in protocols on Monday’s injury report. Poole entered health and safety protocols on Dec. 17, two days before Wiggins, but was required to quarantine in Boston. According to a report from The Athletic, Poole flew back across the country on Monday, but it’s unclear when he’ll be ready to rejoin the Warriors.
Green’s absence is the most significant to date for Golden State and Kerr did not reveal who will replace him in Tuesday’s starting lineup.
