In Game 3, Celtics center Robert Williams III fought through knee soreness to deliver 26 impactful minutes of action, while Warriors forward Andre Iguodala returned to the lineup after missing Game 2. Most notably is Stephen Curry, who was shaken after a fourth-quarter pileup for a loose ball, suffering an apparent left foot injury in the process.

While all signs point toward Curry being available for Game 4, his status — along with the status of other hobbled players — will be monitored as recovery time is at a premium.
As the Warriors enter a must-win situation while facing a 2-1 series deficit, they will need to be as close to full strength as possible. The same goes for the Celtics, who look to move within one win of the 18th NBA championship in franchise history.
