De'Anthony Melton of the Golden State Warriors has sustained a sprained MCL in his left knee, ruling him out for the upcoming game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The Warriors are awaiting further tests to determine the extent of his injury and recovery timeline.

Melton, who recently transitioned to a starting role, has been a key contributor, averaging 16.5 points, seven rebounds, and three assists in his two starts. His absence will lead to increased playing time for teammates Brandin Podziemski, Moses Moody, and Gary Payton II.
