With more depth than they\u2019ve had in recent years, Golden State has been playing with different starting lineups in order to find its best five-man group.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_brlha4u2f\">Recently settling on Steph Curry, De\u2019Anthony Melton, Andrew Wiggins, Draymond Green, and Trayce-Jackson Davis as his new starting lineup, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr told reporters he plans to stick with this. That lineup got just two games together before the Warriors announced on Tuesday that Melton has a sprained ACL.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_c8iy2zuk7\">Via Warriors PR: \u201cWarriors guard De\u2019Anthony Melton has a sprained left ACL and will undergo further tests.
