Gary Payton Player Profile
Career History
Gary Payton Latest News
Available to play Saturday
Payton (shoulder) is available to play in Game 3 against the Rockets on Saturday, Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com reports. Payton was questionable due to a shoulder injury, but the veteran guard will suit up and should be available to log his regular minutes off the bench. Payton has been limited to 16 and 12 minutes off the bench in the first two games of this first-round series.
Questionable for Saturday
Payton is questionable for Saturday's Game 3 against the Rockets due to a right shoulder strain. Payton has been limited to 16 and 12 minutes off the bench in the first two games of the first-round series against the Rockets. Even if he's deemed available, Payton shouldn't have a big role in fantasy across all formats.
Plays well in win
Payton supplied 12 points (5-10 FG, 2-6 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 20 minutes during Tuesday's 121-116 Play-In Game win over Memphis. Payton is known as a defensive specialist, so his 12 points were the icing on the cake after limiting Memphis' Ja Morant. With Jonathan Kuminga picking up another healthy scratch, Payton could see a healthy role with the second unit going forward.
Green light to play Friday
Payton (knee) is available for Friday's game against Portland. Payton missed the Warriors' last two games due to right knee inflammation, but he's been cleared to return Friday. He has averaged 10.9 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.3 steals over 19.4 minutes per game since the beginning of March.
Questionable for Friday
Payton (knee) has been listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Trail Blazers. Payton is in danger of missing a third straight game due to a right knee issue. The Warriors will likely lean on Buddy Hield, Moses Moody and Gui Santos in the backcourt if Payton is ultimately ruled out.
Ruled out Wednesday
Payton (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Spurs. Payton will miss a second straight game for the Warriors as he continues to nurse a knee issue. Golden State will likely lean on Gui Santos, Buddy Hield and Moses Moody due to the absence of the defensive-minded guard.
Questionable vs. San Antonio
Payton (knee) has been listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Spurs. Payton is in danger of missing a second straight game due to a right knee issue. If the veteran guard cannot play against San Antonio, Golden State will likely turn to Gui Santos, Buddy Hield and Moses Moody to help shoulder the load in the backcourt.
Downgraded to out
Payton (knee) won't play in Tuesday's game versus the Suns. Payton has been downgraded from questionable to out Tuesday due to right knee inflammation. Payton's next chance to suit up is Wednesday's matchup with San Antonio.
Iffy for Tuesday
Payton is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Suns due to right knee discomfort. Tuesday's game is the front end of a back-to-back set, so a maintenance day could be on the table for Payton. If the veteran guard is unable to give it a go, Gui Santos, Buddy Hield and Moses Moody could potentially pick up a handful of minutes.
