Story summary

The Golden State Warriors started their season facing significant roster challenges, with Graham Ike stepping in as a two-way player and starting center against the Memphis Grizzlies due to injuries. Seth Curry, brother of star player Steph Curry, criticized this situation on social media platform Threads, stating that it is "tough" for a 2-way player to start at such a crucial position. The Warriors missed the playoffs last season and have been hit hard by the absence of key players like Kristaps Porzingis, who is out indefinitely due to an undisclosed health issue despite having signed a two-year, $40 million deal with the team this offseason. Other missing players include Charles Bassey and Al Horford, further exacerbating the team's roster problems. The fanbase has expressed frustration over the front office’s inactivity during the offseason, but the current state of the roster significantly impacts the Warriors' chances of making a deep playoff run this season.
