The Golden State Warriors are looking for a sweep against the San Antonio Spurs after another convincing win in San Antonio on Thursday night. They got even better news about their superstar guard on Friday.
Steph Curry has missed the entire postseason thus far, even if he may not be necessary to beat the Spurs. But the Warriors want him back in the lineup, and after a season filled with knee and leg injuries his status has been up in the air for some time.
Curry was reevaluated a week after his three-week evaluation for his sprained MCL on Friday. The result, according to ESPN’s Chris Haynes, is a return to practice on Saturday.

Curry’s return is something that the Warriors have openly talked about this series: getting him right for the next round is key to a shot at a repeat. It’s been said that the Warriors are not nearly as feared without Curry on the floor, and despite their first round dominance against the Spurs it’s clear the Warriors are missing a step without Curry in the lineup.
The Warriors will go for the sweet on Sunday afternoon. If they win, all eyes will be on Curry to get ready for the next round of the postseason.
