After a spell of 11 games on the sidelines, Stephen Curry will reportedly return Tuesday night for the Warriors.
ESPN has reported that Curry will start vs. the Suns, while it’s unclear how many minutes he’ll play in his first contest back.
The 34-year-old guard had missed time with a Left Shoulder Subluxation, more commonly known as a partial dislocation.

He was listed as probable on the team’s injury report ahead of their game vs. Phoenix and practiced fully on Monday.
Curry exited the December 14 game vs. the Pacers in the third quarter with shoulder pain after trying to steal the ball from Indiana’s Jalen Smith.
Aside from that game, which the Warriors would lose 125-119, Golden State went 6-5 without Curry in the lineup.

However, Golden State has lost consecutive contests to the Pistons and Magic ahead of Curry’s return.
He’s averaging 30.0 points per game, 6.6 rebounds and 6.8 assists this season.
