DeMarcus Cousins Expects to Return to Warriors Before End of Postseason

DeMarcus Cousins is planning to return to the court before this season comes to an end, he told Marc J. Spears of The Undefeated.

Cousins partially tore his left quad in Game 2 of the Warriors' first-round series against the Clippers. It was initially expected he would miss the remainder of the postseason, and coach Steve Kerr said it was "unlikely" the four-time All-Star returned this season.

But when speaking with Spears Monday, Cousins said his plans don't involve sitting out through the rest of the playoffs. On Sunday, Kerr said there is a "possibility" Cousins and fellow injured center Damian Jones return before the conclusion of the season.
