San Antonio Spurs v Golden State Warriors
Golden State Warriors vs San Antonio Spurs Starting Lineups and Depth Charts for March 11

The Golden State Warriors and San Antonio Spurs meet for the second time in two days at the Frost Bank Center on Monday. The Warriors lost Saturday's contest 126-113, with Steph Curry injured. The Spurs were also without their best player, Victor Wembanyama.

Golden State came out flat from the get-go and trailed by 19 at the half. The comeback attempt didn't last long, with the Warriors chasing a large deficit early in the contest as the Spurs remained efficient on both ends to fend the challenge off.

Klay Thompson's 27 points off the bench and Jonathan Kuminga's 26 were among the rare takeaways for the Dubs. They had the production needed to replace what Curry brought to the table.

However, the others must step up, and Steve Kerr must add a scorer to the starting lineup after going with a defensive-minded starting five.

The Warriors' injury report looks slightly worse than it was for Saturday's contest, with Steph Curry sidelined due to an ankle sprain, who is joined by Draymond Green (back) and Moses Moody (knee) on the injury report.

The two are probable to play Monday night, which means they will likely play. The Warriors will hope their status isn't downgraded with setbacks closer to the game.

Golden State Warriors vs. San Antonio Spurs key matchups

The Warriors have a 7-foot-4-sized problem with Victor Wembanyama back in the Spurs' starting lineup. It will take a team effort to stop him, but for starters, a key matchup between him and Draymond Green could be intriguing. Green has performed well against taller opponents playing at the five. If he can disrupt Wembanyama's flow, the Warriors will have a solid chance of a bounce-back win.

The other key matchup is between Jeremy Sochan and Jonathan Kuminga. Sochan will be up against the Warriors' stand-in No. 1 option in Steph Curry's absence. Kuminga finished with 26 points in the last game.

That could be a decisive performance on Monday as the Spurs rode off unsustainable shooting. Sochan must do a better job at guarding Kuminga, as he could hurt the Spurs this game.
