The Golden State Warriors will reportedly be without center Andrew Bogut for the remainder of the NBA Finals, whether that is one more game or two.
David Aldridge of NBA.com is reporting that while Bogut is unlikely to need surgery on his knee, he is not expected to be able to play through the injury.
Hearing Andrew Bogut will not require surgery, but projected recovery time will take him out for rest of Finals.

Bogut left Game 5 against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday night after he appeared to hyperextend his knee. You can see a video of the ugly-looking play here. The Warriors have called it a sprained knee.
The Warriors will get Draymond Green back in Game 6 after their implosion Monday night, but missing Bogut could create major issues. Golden State looked lost on the interior at times when Bogut left Game 5, allowing too many easy baskets from LeBron James and Kyrie Irving.
