Green, Iguodala to rest for Warriors on Saturday

Kelley L Cox-USA TODAY Sports

With 59 wins and top spot in the West all but sewn up, the Golden State Warriors can afford to give some key players a game or two off.

Draymond Green and Andre Iguodala will both rest Saturday night against the Milwaukee Bucks. It will be the first game all season that Green will not play, and only the fifth Iguodala will miss.

Both have immense value to the Warriors as two-way players; Green as a starter, and Iguodala off the bench. The Dubs' net rating is 13.4 points per 100 possessions lower when Green is off the floor this season. 

The Warriors are looking like a well-oiled machine heading towards the postseason.
