Timely break arrives for ailing Warriors

Andrew Bogut limped out of Wednesday’s game in the first half, Draymond Green needed his tweaked left ankle re-taped in the second half, Stephen Curry is still recovering from a sprained right knee and Klay Thompson has spent the past 10 games chasing around James Harden and Damian Lillard.

“It felt like we were running on fumes a little bit,” Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said.

The Warriors will have six days between games if the Western Conference semifinal series between Oklahoma City and San Antonio goes to a seventh game.

If the Thunder wrap up the series Thursday night, the Warriors will open the conference finals Monday.

Curry and Green seem to have accepted that they’re going to be sore throughout the rest of the playoffs, but they don’t envision missing any more game time.

Dr. Steve Yoon, a physiatrist at Kerlan-Jobe Orthopaedic Clinic in Los Angeles, said the adductor muscle is on the inner thigh and the tendon goes up into the groin.

The adductor allows the leg and hip to move across the body and can be injured by sudden movement or a lot of stop-and-go movements.

Lateral movements are especially difficult, but as each day goes on, that’s a benefit for him to rest and recover.

Yoon said Grade 1 strains typically sideline players from days to two weeks, Grade 2 strains can cost a player a month, and Grade 3 strains are uncommon.

Bogut will get plenty of rest during the Warriors’ downtime and will most likely be treated with ice, compression, stretching and anti-inflammatories.
