The Golden State Warriors are preparing to play their first game since March 2020 Saturday against the Western Conference finalists Denver Nuggets.
As a result, the Warriors’ head coach Steve Kerr revealed the target playing time for Steph Curry and the rest of the veterans, as they slated to host Denver at Chase Center in San Francisco.

“Tomorrow I’m thinking in the 20 range would be max for just about everybody. Which means literally every guy on the roster is going to get pretty significant minutes. I’m going to discuss this with Steph and the veteran players tomorrow. Andrew, Kelly and guys like that. And I will discuss it with Rick , and we will get a plan together. Realistically about 20 minutes seems right.”
More specifically, this will be Stephen Curry’s second game since he returned from a hand injury, while Kelly Oubre Jr., Nico Mannion, Kent Bazemore, and Brad Wanamaker will make their Bay Area debuts.
On the other hand, James Wiseman and Draymond Green are still not practicing in GSW’s training facility and will be unavailable for tonight’s game.
