Warriors' David West: Doubtful to return during road trip

West (thumb) isn't expected to return to action during the Warriors' three-game road trip, which begins Friday against the Grizzlies, Jimmy Durkin of the San Jose Mercury News reports.

Analysis:

Based on that schedule, West won't return to the lineup until Feb. 15 against the Kings at the earliest. Given that that game is the Warriors' final outing before the All-Star break, the team may be inclined to let West sit out for the rest of the first half. The 36-year-old big man has only held a light role off the bench this season, averaging 4.1 points, 2.7 rebounds, 2.1 assists in 11.5 minutes per game over 42 appearances.
