What’s the buzz on Twitter? CJ Holmes @CjHolmes22Kevon Looney checks in for the first time tonight with 3:41 left in the first quarter. Lakers up 21-19. – 9:31 PM Vivek Jacob @vivekmjacobOh wow JaMychal Green starting for Kevon Looney very interesting. Makes sense to try and max out that spacing and maybe even run a bit more after the way the Lakers controlled the paint last game. – 9:19 PM Kylen Mills @KylenMillsKevon Looney has not missed a Warriors game since March 20, 2021. Tonight Looney is out of the starting lineup because he’s sick, but hopes to play. It’s incredible in today’s NBA that he’s played in every game for more than 2 years – I just hope Loon feels better. #dubnation – 9:09 PM Mike Trudell @LakersReporterJaMychal Green replaces Kevon Looney in the starting lineup. Warriors say that Looney is not feeling well, but will play. Regardless, this gives GSW a smaller, more spread out look that LAL expected to see more of with Draymond at the 5. – 8:51 PM Dalton Johnson @DaltonJ_JohnsonPer the Warriors, the reason JaMychal Green is starting over Kevon Looney is because Looney isn’t feeling well (illness)Looney is expected to still play Game 2 – 8:41 PM Marc Stein @TheSteinLineBig change in Golden State’s starting lineup: JaMychal Green in for Kevon Looney for Game 2 against the Lakers. – 8:34 PM Kendra Andrews @kendra__andrewsWarriors shake up their starting lineup: JaMychal Green is on, Kevon Looney is out.Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, Andrew Wiggins and Draymond Green round out the starting five. – 8:33 PM Monte Poole @MontePooleNBCSSources: Warriors plan to start G2 vs. Lakers with their small lineup, Draymond Green at the 5 and Kevon Looney coming off the bench – 8:32 PM Jeff Wade @SkinWadeNot saying that their games are similar, but do any of you older hoop fans feel like Kevon Looney has the Chief Parish demeanor? – 9:50 AM More on this storyline
