Warriors' David West: Back at practice Friday

West (thumb) has returned to practice Friday and is expected to be out for at least two more games, Monte Poole of CSNBayArea.com reports.

Analysis:

With West only seeing 11.5 minutes per game on the season when he plays, there hasn't been too much of a shift in minutes or statistics for any other Warriors forwards in the four games that he's missed. When he returns, he should see his usual minutes and remain a largely irrelevant fantasy option.
