Steph Curry is set to make his return to the Golden State Warriors' lineup, as he is cleared to play in the crucial game against the Los Angeles Lakers.
The Warriors are currently one loss behind the Lakers in the standings and aim to secure a win to enhance their chances of climbing out of the 10th seed.
A victory over the Lakers could potentially place the Warriors in the 9th seed, granting them the advantage of hosting their first play-in game at home.
Curry missed the Warriors' previous game against the Utah Jazz for rest, a strategic move by Golden State to preserve their star player for crucial matchups.
Given Curry's significant role this season, the Warriors have been proactive in finding opportunities to provide him with essential rest periods.
The Warriors' last game against the Utah Jazz presented an opportune moment for Curry's rest, especially since the Jazz are more desperate for losses than wins at this stage of the season.
Curry's presence will undoubtedly bolster the Warriors' lineup, providing them with the offensive firepower and leadership needed to overcome the Lakers.
