The Golden State Warriors may be getting two key pieces back in their lineup for their matchup against the Toronto Raptors.

Klay Thompson and Leandro Barbosa are expected to return to game action Tuesday, according to The San Francisco Chronicle's Rusty Simmons.

Thompson missed Saturday's head-to-head with the Brooklyn Nets with back stiffness.

The one-time All-Star and NBA champion has season averages of 15.2 points - shooting 38.6 percent from beyond the arc - 4.2 rebounds, and 2.4 assists.

Barbosa - a former Sixth Man of the Year and key role player - has missed the team's previous two games due to a family matter.

Heading into Tuesday's contest, the Dubs remain undefeated - sporting a 11-0 record - and look to keep the proverbial ball rolling against a strong 7-4 Raptors team.
