When the Golden State Warriors aim to keep their perfect record intact Tuesday night against the Toronto Raptors, their starting lineup will look a tad different.
Klay Thompson, who missed Saturday’s game against the Nets with a back injury, is expected to return to the lineup. As is Andrew Bogut, who has played off the bench since returning from a concussion, per CSN Bay Area. Festus Ezelihas been starting in his place, but it appears that was only a temporary fix until Bogut was healthy enough to start.
The Warriors are 11-0 and coming off an overtime win over the Nets that wasn’t pretty, but saw them make an impressive comeback and dominate the extra session.
The Raptors, meanwhile, are in the middle of a five-game road swing to the West coast. They lost to the Kings in Sacramento on Sunday.
