According to Shayna Rubin of Mercury News, Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr is set to play all his veterans against the Detroit Pistons. That means Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green and Chris Paul should suit up.

However, it remains to be seen how many minutes Kerr gives them in the second game of a back-to-back. It's still too early in the season to think about rest, but the age of the four veterans is a huge factor

Thompson was listed as questionable on Sunday night due to right adductor tightness but was eventually cleared to play. He ended with 15 points, three rebounds and two assists in 32 minutes.

Meanwhile, Green seems to have fully recovered from a sprained ankle that kept him out of the entire preseason and the first two games of the season. He's also likely looking forward to facing his hometown team for the first time this campaign.
