UPDATE: Gary Payton II will join the Warriors after the team reportedly decided to accept the four-team trade despite issues with his medical exam, reports say.
The Athletic's sources clarified in a Sunday report that Payton had taken Toradol orally, not though injections.
While Charania and Slater reported that Payton could miss up to three months, a source told NBC Sports Bay Area's Dalton Johnson on Friday that there is"no exact timetable" for how long Payton will be out. Shortly after the news of Payton's failed physical broke Friday, sources told NBC Sports Bay Area's Monte Poole that the Warriors were mulling ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported Saturday, citing sources, that Golden State has made the league office aware that it believes Portland wasn't transparent about Payton's injury.
It took a bit longer than expected, but Payton is back where he wants to be, with the team that gave him his best shot to establish himself in the NBA. While it's unclear when he will play, he's now in the capable hands of the Warriors' medical staff.
