NBC Sports Bay Area's Monte Poole spoke with Green as he walked to the team bus in Portland on Thursday, with the 34-year-old making it clear he was doing well.

Draymond hobbled on his way to the bus. I asked him about it. The reaction was the same as most professional athletes limping after the game: “I'm fine, man.” https://t.co/g50GTyvhEo

With the Warriors running away from the Blazers, Curry played just 25 minutes while Green played 20 and Melton played 19 minutes on the bench.

Curry finished the game with 17 points, 10 assists and nine rebounds, missing a triple-double as he sat out the entire fourth quarter.

Green scored eight points, grabbed six rebounds and picked up his first technical foul of the season.

Melton scored 10 points on 4 of 11 shooting and had four assists in his Warriors debut.

The Warriors played well in their first game of the season, but picked up a few bumps and bruises along the way.
