Watch: Steph Curry puts on show at Warriors morning shootaround before return vs. Raptors

Stephen Curry looks ready to make his return to game action.

There have been many hurdles in Stephen Curry’s return to the floor. The two-time Most Valuable Player broke his left hand in late October against the Phoenix Suns and has been out ever since.

Curry has gone through an extended rehab with many steps. However, the Golden State point guard is officially healthy and scheduled to return to the court.

The Davidson product has been practicing with the Warriors and recently traveled to Santa Cruz to scrimmage with Golden State’s G League affiliate. After his practice in Santa Cruz, Golden State cleared their six-time All-Star to return to game action.

Before Curry officially suited up in his No. 30 game uniform, the six-time All-Star put on a shooting show in Golden State’s early morning workout at Chase Center in San Francisco.

After missing the past four months, Curry will make his return to the court during a nationally televised broadcast against the defending champion Toronto Raptors.

Injury Report: Steph Curry will have minutes restriction vs. Raptors

Steph Curry says he will play “somewhere between 24 and 28 minutes” in return from injury against the Raptors.

The Golden State Warriors have taken every precaution when it comes to Stephen Curry’s broken left-hand injury. The two-time Most Valuable Player has gone through multiple re-evaluations, tedious workouts and everything in between.

With Curry finally cleared to return against the Toronto Raptors, the Warriors will proceed with caution in his first game back.

Curry spoke to reporters at Golden State’s shootaround about how much playing time he will get after missing the past 58 games.

Somewhere between 24 and 28 minutes. I don’t know exactly, we haven’t really finalized exactly how that’s going to look, nor should we tell anybody. It’s just a matter of staying in that lane where I can go full speed, highest intensity and not burn out, and get through a whole game. I’m not worried about it at all. I think I can play a lot more than that just based on all the work that I’ve put in. But, you got to be smart about it in that sense. You also have to feel the game. Obviously, I want to be out there when it matters. Finishing quarters, finishing the game and being available in that respect. That’s the goal to manage the minutes but also not mess with the game where I’m not all the way engaged and able to make an impact with longer stretches consecutively out there on the floor.

Before being cleared to return against the Toronto Raptors, Curry spent time in Santa Cruz with the Warriors’ G League Affiliate. The six-time All-Star scrimmaged with the G League group to build his conditioning before returning to NBA action.

With Golden State’s playoff hopes spoiled, there is no need for the Warriors to rush Curry back from injury. Over the remaining 20 games of the regular season, the Golden State point-guard will slowly ramp up his game minutes as he finds a rhythm with his surgically repaired hand.

Stephen Curry on making his long-awaited return from injury: ‘It feels like the first day of school’

After missing four months due to injury, Stephen Curry is clear to make his long-awaited return to the court.

It has been a long process for Stephen Curry to make his return to the basketball court. The injured point guard has missed 58 games for the Golden State Warriors since breaking his left hand against the Phoenix Suns in only the fourth contest of the new season.

After going through a lengthy rehab, Curry is finally clear to make his much-anticipated return to the floor on Thursday night. The two-time Most Valuable Player will suit up against the Toronto Raptors at Chase Center in San Francisco.

Curry spoke to reporters at Golden State’s morning shootaround about his return to the court for the first time in four months.

Via Connor Letourneau of the San Francisco Chronicle:

I’m excited. Coming into this year, I was excited to compete and see what the season held in terms of our transition as an organization. Obviously, that was taken away pretty quickly. Four months to just get ready for a day like today, where a lot of hard work has gone into the rehab. So many people helped me get to this point, where I’m confident in getting back out on the floor and getting back to what I love to do. Joining my guys who have been through a lot this season — trying to finish this season on a strong note. It feels like the first day of school pretty much all over again, which is exciting. I feel pretty comfortable, pretty confident in where I’m at physically. Just excited to get back out there.

All eyes will be on Curry against the defending NBA champion Raptors on Thursday night. Following Toronto, the six-time All-Star will have 19 games remaining in the 2019-20 season to work back from injury.

It’s official, Stephen Curry is back.

It’s official — he’s back. After being out of the Golden State Warriors lineup for the past 58 games, Stephen Curry will make his long-awaited return to the floor against the defending champion Toronto Raptors on Thursday night.

Curry was injured when Aron Baynes of the Phoenix Suns fell on the two-time Most Valuable Player, breaking his hand on October 30, 2019, at Chase Center.

Curry has since gone through a long rehab with the last step coming on Tuesday in Santa Cruz. The six-time All-Star was assigned to Golden State’s G League affiliate in Santa Cruz. Curry practiced with the G League squad in a full-contact five-on-five scrimmage to simulate live game action and ramp up his conditioning.
