After a rough loss in Game 6 on Friday, the Golden State Warriors will go back to their regular starting rotation in a win or go home Game 7 against the Sacramento Kings on the road on Sunday.
During their wins in Game’s 3, 4 and 5, Steve Kerr opted to go small with Draymond Green coming off the bench and start Jordan Poole alongside Steph Curry and Klay Thomspon in the backcourt.
However, after a loss in Game 6 on Friday, Draymond Green will return to his spot in the starting lineup. Green will start in Game 7 next to Kevon Looney, Andrew Wiggins, Curry and Thompson.
