The Warriors have had more than their fair share of injuries this year, and it looks like the team is now dealing with another one.
In the closing moments of the third quarter of Saturday night’s contest between the Golden State Warriors and the Sacramento Kings, Patrick McCaw caught a pass from Jordan Bell and went up for a dunk. After contact with Vince Carter, McCaw fell hard on his back and immediately rolled on the floor in pain.
The injury appeared serious from the beginning, and medical officials had to take McCaw off the court in a stretcher.

The crowd at the Golden 1 Center gave McCaw a standing ovation as he left the court. After the injury, both teams huddled on the court and appear to pray for McCaw together.
McCaw has already missed time this year dealing with multiple injuries. He most recently missed ten games from February to March with an injured wrist.
