Bogut (ribs) was able to take part in Monday's practice, Rusty Simmons of The San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Analysis:

This seemingly provides a reassuring sign that the rib injury that prevented Bogut from playing in Sunday's win over the Trail Blazers isn't a major concern. Coach Steve Kerr said after Monday's session that he expects Bogut to return to the lineup either Tuesday against the Timberwolves or Thursday against the Spurs. The Warriors returned Festus Ezeli (knee) from a long-term injury Sunday, so the team would likely have the luxury of limiting Bogut's minutes Tuesday if they wish to keep him active.
