Warriors' injury report tonight has 5 players listed, including 2 out vs. Trail Blazers originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here. The Golden State Warriors are back in action Friday night to take on the Portland Trail Blazers.

The Portland Trail Blazers have dealt with a whirlwind start to the 2025-26 NBA campaign. Despite head coach Chauncey Billups’ involvement in a betting scandal, the Blazers have done well in a lot of games.

Chauncey Billups will plead not guilty to the illegal sports betting charges, according to Shams Charania of ESPN.

Jimmy Butler and Buddy Hield have been listed as probable while Jonathan Kuminga will remain out on Friday against the Blazers.

With Portland averaging 120.7 PPG and being so bad defensively, the Over is essentially a lock here. Look for Golden State's stars to produce a lot of offense for the Warriors and look for the Dubs to get a lot of transition points off of turnovers here to help reach the Over.

While the Chicago Bulls are relieved to sit two games above .500 once again, the celebration was tinged with a queasiness that comes from one too many close calls.

The Golden State Warriors sat out their stars on Wednesday against the Miami Heat, which included Jimmy Butler, who was sidelined with a back injury. It was the second contest of a back-to-back set and the final game of a six-game road trip, which likely factored into the team’s decision to give Butler and Co. the night off.
