Pachulia sustained a right heel contusion in the first half of Game 2 on Tuesday and has since been limited in practice. Acting coach Mike Brown announced he was out after the team’s shootaround Saturday morning.
The Warriors have several options to replace Pachulia in the starting lineup, including JaVale McGee, who generally was the first option in the regular season.
“We’ll probably start JaVale, but we’re still talking about it,” Brown said.
It’s possible the Warriors could start with a small lineup featuring Draymond Green at center, with Matt Barnes moving into Green’s power forward spot.
