The Golden State Warriors continue to adapt their lineup as they head into Game 2 against the Minnesota Timberwolves without star guard Stephen Curry. With Curry sidelined, coach Steve Kerr is opting for a strategy that emphasizes size and shooting. Rookie Quinten Post is set to make his first playoff start, joining a lineup that includes Jimmy Butler, Draymond Green, Brandin Podziemski, and Buddy Hield.

Post has seen limited action in the playoffs thus far, averaging 4.6 points on 32.5% shooting from the field and pulling down 2.9 rebounds in just over 15 minutes per game. His debut as a starter presents an opportunity for him and could impact the team’s overall dynamic as they look to solidify their playoff run.
