An MRI showed no broken bones, and the veteran forward will
be re-evaluated in two weeks.
The reigning NBA Finals MVP, Iguodala is averaging 7.3 points
and 4.1 rebounds per game, though his value to the team is
bigger than numbers.
"It's a really big deal. Andre is so important to everything
that we do," coach Steve Kerr told reporters before the Warriors
played the Phoenix Suns on Saturday.
"It's not just schematically but in terms of emotion: he settles
us down. He's one of our guys who knows what's happening on the
floor."
The injury comes as the Warriors, 58-6 entering their contest
Saturday, pursue the regular-season record for wins, held by the
1995-96 Chicago Bulls who finished 72-10.
