Thompson (knee) out versus Celtics
The Warriors are preparing for a big-time interconference matchup against the Celtics, but they'll have to do so without their All-Star shooting guard. Klay Thompson will be sidelined versus Boston due to knee soreness.
Klay Thompson and Kevon Looney are out tonight. Andre Iguodala is good to go.
