Mandatory Credit: David Gonzales-Imagn Images Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry is expected to return from his thigh contusion on Friday night against the visiting Minnesota Timberwolves.
The 37-year-old guard has missed the past five games since sustaining the injury in a 104-100 home loss against the Houston Rockets on Nov. 26. The Warriors (13-12) were 3-2 in that stretch to climb above .500.
"It's looking good," Warriors coach Steve Kerr said after Curry was fully cleared to practice on Wednesday night in San Francisco.
Curry's injury resulted from a pair of collisions during the fourth quarter of the win against the Rockets. The two-time NBA MVP was whistled for a blocking foul on Houston's Amen Thompson and later called for a charge on his attempt for a driving layup.
Curry, 37, is averaging 27.9 points, 4.0 assists and 3.7 rebounds in 16 games (all starts) this season.
The 11-time All-Star and four-time NBA champion is the league's all-time leader in 3-pointers (4,133) in the regular season and in the playoffs (650).
