Harrington has been placed on the Warriors inactive list and is using bed rest to cure an ailing back. Doctors have also recommended that he use his favorite “blanky” to speed up his recovery.
“Perhaps in an attempt to quiet his clamoring for a trade, Golden State Warriors forward Al Harrington was placed on the inactive list with a strained lower back prior to Friday’s 109-104 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies.
Harrington, who has had an ongoing feud with coach Don Nelson about his role on the team, was not in attendance at Oracle Arena. He asked to be traded one day before the start of the season.”
