The Golden State Warriors expect Stephen Curry to play in Game 2 against the Pelicans, which would be his first game since suffering a Grade 2 sprained MCL in his left knee in March.

Curry has missed 15 games.

The Warriors have always expected Curry to return at some point in the second round.

"If it were up to me, I would have played for about 20 minutes tonight," Curry told ESPN after the Warriors' victory on Saturday. "The plan is to return Tuesday, but ultimately it's up to the training staff. I feel good."

The Atlanta Hawks will interview Jarron Collins for their head coaching vacancy.

Collins has been an assistant coach with the Golden State Warriors since 2014.

Travis Schlenk is familiar with Collins from his time with the Warriors.

Stephen Curry sat out Game 1 of the Warriors' second round series against the Pelicans, but the Warriors expect him to play in Game 2.

Steve Kerr said it is "very likely" he plays in Game 2.

Curry was listed as questionable entering Saturday's game.

Curry has not played since suffering a Grade 2 MCL sprain in his left knee on March 23.

Andre Iguodala began practicing yoga a few years ago in order to prolong his career and now he also sees the mental benefits.

Lisa Goodwin, the Warriors’ senior director of corporate communications, also works as an instructor for Core Power Yoga in Walnut Creek.

Goodwin has tutored Steve Kerr, Stephen Curry, Zaza Pachulia and other Warriors, but Iguodala has taken it up most seriously.

“His body awareness is incredible. Incredible,” Goodwin said. “So I can cue him into something, and it could be a pose he’s never done before. And when we do it again, he’s in the pose exactly how I asked him to be.”

Iguodala practices with Goodwin at often as twice per week.

“It’s to keep my sanity,” Iguodala joked Monday. “That’s more helpful than anything.”

Even when limited physically in what he can do in a session, Iguodala finds the mindfulness concept as being critical to his work with Goodwin.

“This is going to sound very yoga-y,” she said. “But I remember the moment it became more than just physical to him. It was like our fourth session, it was very early, and the energy was changed in the room between him and I.

“I just felt him release and finally let him go and be thinking, ‘I’m going to get into this pose and do what she says.’ He was easing into poses with his body while his mind got there, and he was breathing properly.”

“It’s the mental training,” Iguodala said. “Yoga helps me with basketball, but it helps me outside of it more than anything.”

Stephen curry was a full participant in the Golden State Warriors' practice on Thursday.

The Warriors will begin their second round series against the Pelicans on Saturday and Curry is listed as questionable.

Curry is returning from a Grade 2 MCL sprain.

Steve Kerr said that Curry "practiced 100 percent" and "did everything."

"Looked good, too," Kerr said.

Bob Myers left the possibility open in an interview on Wednesday, telling 95.7 The Game that Curry returning for Game 1 is "conceivable."

Kevin Durant is attempting to move forward from his past with the Oklahoma City Thunder, but incidents such as when he accidentally liked an Instagram post critical of Russell Westbrook bring back old issues.

"I know what it is nowadays," Durant said after shoot-around Tuesday. "I know what the truth is. It is what it is. I don’t want problems with nobody."

In September, Durant responded twice — both times in the third person — to a tweet asking for "one legitimate reason for leaving (Oklahoma City) other than getting a championship." The first response read, "He didn’t like the organization or playing for Billy Donovan. His roster wasn’t that good, it was just him and russ." The second tweet only made things worse: "Imagine taking russ off that team, see how bad they were. Kd can’t win a championship with those cats."

Durant's relationship with Westbrook has seemingly improved over the past few months.

Kevin Durant claims he accidentally 'Liked' a comment on Instagram that blames Russell Westbrook for why the Thunder were unable to win a title.

Sheesh. https://t.co/mv6PJYoxEi

Durant apparently spoke with Royce Young after the initial post.

Kevin Durant tells me it was a "total accident" that he liked a comment on Instagram about Russell Westbrook. Was just an honest mistake.

Stephen Curry has partnered with Sony Pictures Entertainment for his newly formed production company Unanimous Media. 

The shingle is named for Curry's unanimous Most Valuable Player award in 2016.

The first-look film and TV deal also will extend to opportunities in partnerships, electronics, gaming and virtual reality. Curry’s production headquarters will be located on the Sony Pictures studio lot in Culver City.

“I’ve been blessed to have this platform and I want to use it to affect the world positively,” Curry said in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter. “Partnering with Sony to share inspiring content with a global audience was a foregone conclusion."

The production company will focus on faith and family-friendly content as well as sports-themed projects.

Curry founded Unanimous Media with Jeron Smith and Erick Peyton, who serve as CEO and CCO, respectively. 

“Steph is a transcendent figure in current culture. His wide-ranging content creation interests overlap well with our varied businesses and we have been equally impressed with his team,” Tom Rothman, chairman of Sony Pictures Motion Picture Group, said in a statement. “We are honored to have been drafted and now we know how lucky Golden State feels every day.”

Kevin Durant doesn't expect to miss any time with his tweaked left ankle.

Durant suffered the injury late in Game 3 of Golden State's win over the Spurs.

"I'm good," Durant told ESPN's Chris Haynes. "It's nothing."

Durant called it "a quick roll."

"It didn't completely turn," Durant told ESPN. "I'm fine."

Stephen Curry is still not close to returning from his sprained MCL.

Curry isn't in the final stages of his rehabilitation and will be evaluated again on Friday.

Curry is expected to take the full six weeks of his 4-6 week timeline.

The injury Curry suffered this year was more severe than the one he suffered in 2016.

A six-week recovery would put Curry back for May 4th, which means he could be ready for Game 3 of the second round should the Warriors advance.
