Gsw injury report: gsw and Celtics status ahead of Feb. 19 game
Final injury updates landed ahead of Boston’s trip to Golden State for Game #55 on Thursday, Feb. 19, a 10: 00 PM ET tipoff at Chase Center. The early news matters because Jayson Tatum is listed out for Boston, and Seth Curry is listed out for the home team, changes that will affect rotations and matchups for two teams with distinct recent form.
Gsw injury outlook
For Golden State, the available text lists Seth Curry as out due to sciatica. The status of Stephen Curry is unclear at this time. The same reporting also lists Jimmy Butler as out after tearing an ACL in December; that detail is noted but is unclear in how it affects Thursday’s lineup. Those entries leave the Warriors’ immediate rotation picture partly defined and partly uncertain.
gsw final injury report
Boston’s final injury status is clear in the provided material: at this time, only Jayson Tatum is out for the Celtics. Boston has adjusted its roster in response, signing Delano Banton to a 10-day contract and converting two-way player John Tonje to a 10-day contract to meet roster requirements. For the Warriors, Seth Curry’s sciatica-related absence is the clearest item; other names tied to injuries appear in the listing but are not confirmed as affecting Thursday’s active roster.
Match timing, stakes and roster moves
The game is scheduled for 10: 00 PM ET on Thursday, Feb. 19, at Chase Center and is the first of two meetings this season between these clubs; the second is scheduled for March 18 in Boston. Boston enters at 35-19 and sits second in the East, while Golden State is 29-26 and listed eighth in the West. The Celtics are 17-10 on the road and 7-3 in their last 10 games, coming off a win; the Warriors are 18-10 at home and 4-6 in their last 10, coming off a loss.
Recent roster construction noted for Golden State includes losses and additions listed in the material: the team lost Kevon Looney to the Pelicans in the off season, signed Al Horford, Seth Curry and De’Anthony Melton, and completed trades that sent Jonathan Kuminga and Buddy Hield to Atlanta for Kristaps Porzingis and moved Trayce Jackson-Davis to Toronto for a second-round pick. Those moves are part of the context for Thursday’s matchup and bear on depth and lineup options.
Implications and short forward look
If Jayson Tatum remains out, Boston’s bench additions and its 17-10 road record will be factors in how the Celtics try to sustain their East standing on this Western trip. If Seth Curry remains sidelined, Golden State’s perimeter spacing and depth could be affected given the roster changes noted. Both teams have immediate upcoming schedules mentioned in the material: Boston begins a four-game Western road trip through Golden State, Los Angeles, Phoenix and Denver; Golden State’s next home game after this one is against Denver. Those scheduled games create short-term context for how each side may manage minutes and rotations.
Unclear items in the available text—most notably the exact status of Stephen Curry and the functional impact of certain injury listings—remain unresolved at this time. Game status decisions and final active rosters are expected to be set closer to tipoff for the 10: 00 PM ET matchup.
