sfgate:Monday's Nets-Warriors game was partially overshadowed by two injuries.
Warriors swingman Mickael Pietrus left with a right knee sprain with 4:35 remaining in the second quarter and did not return. He had his knee in a blue wrap and was walking on crutches in the postgame locker room.
The Warriors are officially listing Pietrus as day-to-day, but Pietrus estimated he would be out two to six weeks. He said the injury occurred when the Nets' Marc Jackson attempted to draw an offensive foul on Derek Fisher and instead was hit with a blocking foul.
Jackson tumbled backward into Pietrus, who was trying to position himself for a rebound. Pietrus immediately knew something was wrong.
