VIDEO: Draymond Green Goes Down With Elbow Injury During Warriors Clash vs the Grizzlies
Draymond Green may be added to the list of Golden State Warriors stars nursing injuries after taking a hard fall in tonight's game with the Memphis Grizzlies. He crashed hard to the floor directly on his right elbow after contesting a layup attempt, and it appears that Ky Bowman landed on the elbow while falling to the ground.

Green is the last healthy cog of the vaunted Warriors lineup that has been a championship contender for the past decade. He was forced from the game temporarily after sustaining the injury, but returned with a shooting sleeve after a few minutes.
Dray has been in a serious slump recently, shooting less than 30% from the floor in four of his last six games. He's still contributing in terms of rebounds and assists, but with more pressure to shoot, Green hasn't stepped up as a scorer.

It's a good sign that Green was back out on the court quickly, but we're sure Steve Kerr will tread cautiously when it comes to his health.
The Warriors are currently in last place in the Western Conference with a record of 2-12.
