Warriors' Green to return against Timberwolves

Los Angeles, December 10: Draymond Green is ready to return for the Golden State Warriors.

Warriors coach Steve Kerr told reporters the 28-year-old forward will be back on the court when the Warriors host the Minnesota Timberwolves on Monday.

Green has been out since November 15 with a toe sprain.

"Just excited to be back on the floor," Green said after Sunday's practice, via ESPN.

"It's been a while since I really played basketball, so I'm excited."

He also missed a pair of matchups in early November with the toe sprain and returned for one game after the suspension before being sidelined again with the injury.

The three-time All-Star has averaged 6.9 points, 7.5 rebounds and 7.2 assists in 13 appearances in 2018-19.

The Warriors will enter their matchup against Minnesota with an 18-9 record.
