Steve Kerr expects Draymond Green to play Friday

OAKLAND, Calif. _ The Warriors might be getting some of their toughness back very soon.

Draymond Green, who has missed the team's last four games because of right shoulder soreness, participated in scrimmages at Thursday's practice.

"I kind of expect him to play tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see," Steve Kerr said Thursday.

Green and Zaza Pachulia, who has missed the team's last five games with left shoulder soreness, did three-on-three scrimmages. Kerr said both players will be questionable for Friday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers.

"They both came out fine," Kerr said.

Kerr said that Green wanted to play in Wednesday's 97-84 win over Memphis, but he held him out to make sure he was ready.

"He probably was healthy enough to play, but we hadn't seen any live action from him since the Detroit game, so we weren't going to play him without some scrimmaging," Kerr said.

Shaun Livingston (right knee soreness) did not practice Thursday and is doubtful against the Lakers. Andre Iguodala (flu-like symptoms) is questionable.

Stephen Curry, who remains sidelined with a sprained right ankle, received treatment Thursday and shot around after the team finished practicing. Curry will be re-evaluated Tuesday.
