The Golden State Warriors might come into Game 4 of the Western Conference finals against the Houston Rockets this Tuesday minus their 2015 NBA Finals MVP, Andre Iguodala. According to the Warriors’ official Twitter account, the 34-year-old forward has been labeled as doubtful for Tuesday’s contest.

Iguodala hurt his knee during the waning seconds of Sunday’s dominant 126-85 win over the Rockets that pushed the Warriors ahead in the series, two games to one. Iguodala was initially expected to play in the next game, but the pain in his knee appeared to have worsened overnight to the point that he was not able to join the Warriors’ practice on Monday.

In a bit of good news for Iguodala and the Warriors, however, Shams Charania of Yahoo Sports has reported that an X-ray of the versatile forward’s left leg did not show any serious damage.

Iguodala played 27 minutes in Game 3 and finished the contest with 10 points, three rebounds, three assists, three steals, and a block in a solid display of two-way play. The former Arizona Wildcat is averaging 7.9 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 3.1 assists in 27.4 minutes on the floor in the postseason.

In case Iguodala will not be able to secure a green light to play this Tuesday, the likes of Shaun Livingston, Kevon Looney, and Nick Young would all be in line for increased minutes with Looney likely to get a spot in the starting unit.

The Warriors enter Game 4 with an NBA all-time best 16-0 record in their last 16 postseason games at Oracle Arena.
