What are the projected lineups for Golden State Warriors vs LA Lakers?

The Golden State Warriors will be without Patrick Baldwin Jr. (toe), Andre Iguodala (wrist) and Ryan Hollins (foot). However, these players haven't played in a long time and the Warriors are used to them being out.

The situation for the Lakers is much tougher. Their injury report includes Anthony Davis and LeBron James. They're both dealing with foot issues, but will likely play. Mo Bamba (ankle) is also on the report, but is listed as questionable.
