Warriors' Brandon Rush: Inactive for Game 5

Rush will be inactive for Game 5 against the Thunder on Thursday, Rusty Simmons of The San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Analysis:

The Warriors will utilize James McAdoo, who had been inactive for the previous four games of the series, as their 12th man, leaving Rush to don street clothes for the night. Rush hadn't provided much of an impact to this point in the series, combining to play 23 minutes and scoring four points to go with nine rebounds. Rush's absence shouldn't impact anyone's playing time much Thursday, and it's unclear if he'll remain inactive if the series goes to a Game 6 on Saturday.
