As a result, Green will miss at least the next four games.

Green had previously been ruled out of Monday’s game at Chase Center against the Boston Celtics because of a left calf strain, per ESPN’s Ohm Youngmisuk.

Stephen Curry was initially listed as questionable with a left ankle sprain, according to Youngmisuk. However, Curry was ultimately in the lineup on Monday.

Both stars limped off the court during the Warriors’ 122-114 victory over Washington on Saturday. Green exited just three minutes into the first quarter and was later ruled out with left calf tightness. Curry left the game with an ankle injury in the final two minutes but remained optimistic about playing on Monday.

“Feels great,” Curry said about his ankle in the locker room, per Youngmisuk. “See you on Monday.”

Kerr added that he believes Curry’s injury is not serious but was uncertain about Green’s condition.

“Steph told me he doesn’t think it’s serious,” Kerr said, per Youngmisuk. “They will both be day-to-day for now… We don’t really know [with Green]. We will have to wait and see what the MRI shows tomorrow. Just kind of assess him the next couple of days and figure out what’s next.”

Curry has been lighting it up this season, averaging 23 points, 5 rebounds and 6.2 assists while shooting 41.1 percent from three-point range. Green has contributed with 8.4 points, 6.0 rebounds and 5.4 assists in 27.8 minutes per game.

The Warriors have been plagued by injuries recently, sitting at 21-20 and 10th in the Western Conference. Jonathan Kuminga injured his right ankle on Jan. 4, Brandin Podziemski has been sidelined since Dec. 28 with an abdominal injury and Kyle Anderson remains out with a glute injury.
