While Monday’s absence will mark Livingston’s third consecutive game lost to a
sprained right index finger, the veteran point guard likely isn’t dealing with
anything overly serious and is being sat out simply as a precautionary measure
with the Warriors heavily favored to advance to the second round of the
playoffs. Look for Ian Clark to continue operating as the top backup to starting
point guard Stephen Curry, a role in which he’s averaged 10 points and three
rebounds across 18 minutes per game this postseason.
