Steph Curry, Draymond Green Return vs. Raptors Sunday
The Golden State Warriors used their Friday night contest against the Detroit Pistons as a maintenance day for a pair of their starters, resting Steph Curry and Draymond Green. Both players were removed from the Warriors’ injury report and should be active against the Toronto Raptors on Sunday.
13 seasons in the NBA hasn’t slowed Curry down. The two-time MVP leads the league in scoring, averaging 29.5 points per game, chipping in with 6.1 rebounds and 6.5 assists. What Curry accomplishes offensively is what Green contributes defensively. Green is second on the team with 0.9 defensive win shares and a 3.6 defensive box plus/minus rating, as calculated by Basketball-Reference.
