SAN ANTONIO _ The Warriors were correct in saying that Stephen Curry would not play in the first round of the playoffs. But will he play in the second round of the NBA playoffs?
"Steph is not going to play anytime soon," Warriors coach Steve Kerr said. "But he's come along well and has looked good in practice."
The Warriors will have a better idea what that means once they re-evaluate him on Friday.
The Warriors play Game 5 of their first-round series against San Antonio on Tuesday at Oracle Arena.
"I can't put a timetable on it," Kerr said. "But I think he's coming along well."
The Warriors cleared Curry to participate in modified practice beginning on Saturday. Then, Curry completed all of the team's non-contact drills as well as a shooting workout. Curry would need to advance to a full contact practice before returning, but he could reach that goal before the Warriors reevaluate him on Friday.
"He's really feeling healthy and getting better," Kerr said. "He still has a few limitations he's trying to work through with no pain. I think he's on track."
