Warriors' Klay Thompson likely to play in Game 3 after hamstring strain

Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson is questionable for Game 3 of the NBA Finals after an MRI exam on his injured left hamstring revealed only a strain, The Athletic's Shams Charnia reported Monday evening. In more dire injury news for Golden State, backup centre Kevon Looney has a non-displaced collarbone fracture and is out indefinitely, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported.

Both Thompson and Looney were injured during the Warriors' 109-104 win over the Raptors on Sunday night in Toronto, a resulted in that levelled the best-of-seven series at one win apiece. The Warriors travelled to Oakland, Calif., following Game 2 but didn't arrive until after 4 a.m. local time, delaying Thompson's MRI and Looney's MRI and CT scan until later in the day.

The team initially announced that Looney had a chest contusion, but coach Steve Kerr later said that Looney's injury was "something with his shoulder." Thompson said after the game Sunday he expected to play in Game 3 on Wednesday, though he was seen limping around Scotiabank Arena after Golden State's Sunday win.

The Warriors continue to await the return of All-NBA forward Kevin Durant, who hasn't played since sustaining a right calf injury in Game 5 of the Western Conference semifinals on May 8.
