It might have taken a little longer than expected, but Steph Curry has been cleared to return to the Golden State Warriors lineup.

Curry has been out of action since Oct. 30 with a hand injury. He only suited up in four games prior to that, averaging 20.3 points and 6.5 assists per game this season.
He also posted the news on his own Twitter account.

With Klay Thompson sidelined until the 2020-21 season while rehabbing a torn ACL, the Warriors first season at the Chase Center hasn’t been a particularly joyous one.
The Warriors are 14-48 heading into the game against the Raptors and are tied for having the best odds to win the NBA Draft Lottery at 14%.
Atlanta is 4.5 games up on the Dubs for the fourth-worst record in the NBA and if Golden State somehow passes the Hawks, its odds would dip slightly to 12.5%
Either way, having one of the Splash Brothers back on the court will give some much needed excitement to the team going down the stretch.
How are you expecting the Warriors to do over their final 20 games?
