That's certainly a good sight to see for Dub Nation.
Curry was injured on March 16 in Golden State's 110-88 loss to the Boston Celtics. The injury occurred during the second quarter when Celtics guard Marcus Smart dove for a loose ball and landed on the 8-time All-Star's leg.
Golden State cannot wait to get its franchise superstar any sooner as they've gone just 1-3 without him since his injury. This stretch included a loss to the lowly Orlando Magic and a disheartening last-second loss to the San Antonio Spurs.
As a result, the Warriors have fallen 3.5 games below the no. 2 seed Memphis Grizzlies and are three games above the 4th seed Utah Jazz in the Western Conference standings.
Nonetheless, rising third-year guard Jordan Poole has stepped up in Curry's absence.
Since the 34-year-old's injury, Poole is averaging 27.0 points and 7.0 assists while shooting 45.2 percent from the field and 41.7 percent from three.
The Warriors play the fourth game of a five-game road trip on Sunday against the Washington Wizards.
They visit a Ja Morant-less Grizzlies on Monday before heading back home to take on the top-seeded Phoenix Suns on Wednesday.
