Golden State visits San Antonio at Frost Bank Center on Friday, November 13, at 9:30 p.m. EST, 8:30 p.m. CST locally or 6:30 p.m. PST. It is an NBA Cup game. San Antonio is 10–2 after a 124–119 win at Chicago; Golden State is 8–4 after losing 115–108 at Houston.
Reported facts: use the official morning designations
The NBA’s November 13, 7:45 a.m. Eastern report lists Stephen Curry out with a right oblique tear. Golden State also lists Jimmy Butler III, Moses Moody, Kristaps Porziņģis and Brandon Williams out. Charles Bassey is probable with left-toe soreness.
San Antonio lists De’Aaron Fox questionable with left-hip soreness and Devin Vassell questionable with left-adductor tightness. Tobias Harris and Jayden Quaintance are out. A questionable designation is not an absence or a clearance.
The Spurs last started Fox, Stephon Castle, Dylan Harper, Julian Champagnie and Victor Wembanyama. Golden State’s latest starters were Curry, Brandin Podziemski, Yaxel Lendeborg, Draymond Green and Al Horford. Curry must be replaced; neither Friday five was independently confirmed at publication.
ISR analysis: creation changes at both ends
Golden State’s offensive review cannot assume Curry’s usual movement and handling. Watch who initiates, who screens for the next receiver and whether the available group can preserve spacing after San Antonio removes its first route.
For San Antonio, Fox’s final status affects a different handling chain from Vassell’s availability. Identify the actual combination before applying one adjustment to both names. Wembanyama’s interior responsibilities also depend on where the perimeter possession begins and which helper moves.
The Spurs’ strong record and the Cup setting explain the interest. They do not remove the need to inspect the replacement minutes and actual assignments.
Factors to watch
- Fox’s and Vassell’s final designations; Bassey’s status.
- Golden State’s handling and screening without Curry.
- The next receiver after San Antonio sends help.
- Interior coverage and the rebound after rotations.
