Get live updates, news and analysis on Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. during the Warriors’ Western Conference semifinals Game 2 matchup against the New Orleans Pelicans at Oracle.
After nearly six weeks, the Warriors and their fans are excited to see Stephen Curry make his return to the court in Game 2. Curry, who sprained his knee on March 23, will face no playing time restrictions Tuesday, according to coach Steve Kerr.
Curry’s return is bad news for the Pelicans, who fell 123-101 to a Curry-less Warriors squad in the series opener Saturday night.
Klay Thompson’s 27 points and 26 from Kevin Durant led the scoring output while a stifling defense keyed Golden State’s 25th win in its last 27 games against New Orleans.
