Puts up 12 points in return Cryer (hamstring) tallied 12 points (4-9 FG, 4-8 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist in 20 minutes off the bench in Thursday's 115-113 win over the Rockets.

Impact Suiting up at the NBA or G League for the first time since Jan. 25 after completing his recovery from a left hamstring issue, Cryer ended up being included in the rotation for a Warriors squad that was down seven players due to injury. The rookie two-way guard out of Houston acquitted himself well during his time on the court to help lead Golden State to an upset win, but Cryer could drop back out of the rotation for the Warriors' next game Saturday at Oklahoma City if any of Moses Moody (wrist), Will Richard (ankle) or Gary Payton (ankle) return to action.

MARCH 6 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Saturday Cryer (hamstring) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Lakers.

Impact Cryer continues to be sidelined by a left hamstring injury that will keep him out of action for a sixth consecutive game.

FEBRUARY 7 • ROTOWIRE

Not playing Thursday Cryer (hamstring) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Suns.

Impact Cryer will end up missing his fifth consecutive game due to left hamstring injury management, though the fact that he was listed as questionable heading into the day before being downgraded suggests that his return is imminent. Once he's back to full health, the two-way player is unlikely to be a regular factor in the Golden State rotation and could join the Warriors' G League affiliate to see more consistent minutes.

Out for Wednesday Cryer (hamstring) won't play Wednesday versus the Jazz.

Impact Cryer has made just three brief appearances for the Warriors this season, scoring a total of six points on 2-for-5 shooting across eight minutes, so his absence from the active roster won't influence fantasy leagues. His next chance to suit up will come Friday against the Pistons.

JANUARY 29 • ROTOWIRE

Iffy for Wednesday Cryer (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Jazz.

Impact Cryer is in danger of missing a second consecutive contest due to left hamstring tightness. The two-way player has yet to log more than three minutes in a single game with the parent club this season, so his potential absence shouldn't affect the Golden State rotation.

Impact Cryer was his side's second-best scorer and tied for a game-high assisting total against the Blue Coats. The two-way guard has yet to make a regular-season appearance for Golden State. However, he's a regular starter with Santa Cruz and has posted more than 20 points in eight consecutive G League contests.
