Warriors vs. Clippers Prediction, Odds, Line, Time: 2026 NBA Play-in Tournament Picks for Wednesday, April 15

Kerr said Curry, Kristaps Porzingis and Al Horford will not play 40 minutes as Golden State tries to survive the NBA play-in.

  • On Wednesday, the 10th-seeded Golden State Warriors face the 9th-seeded Los Angeles Clippers in a Western Conference play-in tournament game, with head coach Steve Kerr confirming minutes restrictions for Stephen Curry, Kristaps Porzingis, and Al Horford.
  • Kerr implemented these limits due to persistent injury concerns throughout the season, as Porzingis has played only 15 games since his trade and Horford has never played back-to-back games.
  • Curry, recently returned from a knee injury, has averaged under 30 minutes over four games, and Kerr stated the restricted players "are not going to play 40 minutes, I can tell you that."
  • Analyst Dan Dibley questioned the team's intensity, arguing that signaling limited minutes in a must-win game indicates "they are not that into this game."
  • The winner advances to face the loser of the Suns versus Trail Blazers matchup, while elimination awaits the loser in the NBA play-in tournament.
