On the verge of a Western Conference finals sweep of the Mavericks, the Warriors will be without a key bench contributor in Game 4.
During an afternoon press conference, Steve Kerr announced forward Otto Porter Jr. will miss Tuesday’s Game 4. Porter, who was previously considered “doubtful” to play, is dealing with soreness in his right foot. Kerr explained that he doesn’t want to rush a return at this point of the playoffs.
“He’s still sore. Gotta make the wise decision here,” the Warriors coach said, per Anthony Slater of The Athletic. “This gives him a couple of days to prepare for a possible Game 5.”
