If his recovery goes to plan, Stephen Curry could be returning to the Golden State Warriors in one week. The two-time Most Valuable Player has missed all but four games in the 2019-20 season for the Golden State Warriors. However, over the past couple of months, Curry has checked off several boxes in his journey back to the court.
The six-time All-Star has been traveling with his teammates on road trips and participating in shooting workouts at Warriors practices. In one of the final steps of his broken hand rehab, Curry has been cleared for full-contact. In Golden State’s recent practice, Curry was involved in a scrimmage as he gears up for his return.
Curry’s been showing off his effortless jump shot throughout his rehab. Yet, when the New Orleans Pelicans came to San Francisco, the Davidson product took a different approach to his pregame warmup.
Before the Warriors tipped off against Zion Williamson and the Pelicans, Curry slammed down an off the backboard dunk in front of the Chase Center crowd.

If Curry can return March 1 against the Washington Wizards, he will have 22 games to finish out the season.
