Klay Thompson active, Shaun Livingston out vs. Raptors
The Splash Brothers will be reunited Tuesday when the Golden State Warriors host the Toronto Raptors while wearing their "The City" throwbacks.
Shooting guard Klay Thompson, who sat out the team's last contest against the Brooklyn Nets with a bad back, will be in the lineup for Golden State.
After getting some rest over the weekend, Thompson told reporters he's ready to return.
Klay Thompson said his back feels good, and he's excited to get back on the court tonight.

Golden State managed to preserve its perfect start in Thompson's absence, but needed overtime to put away the cellar-dwelling Nets.
The Warriors will also have Draymond Green and Leandro Barbosa at their disposal for Tuesday's contest. Green was battling the flu, but couldn't resist the allure of wearing the throwback jersey. Barbosa, meanwhile, rejoined the team after tending to a family matter in his native Brazil.
Backup point guard Shaun Livingston, however, will not play, as he's dealing with a hip flexor strain.
