Good news for the banged-up Golden State Warriors.

Stephen Curry has been cleared to resume full-team practices with the goal of returning later this week, the team announced.

The news lines up with a report overnight Tuesday that put Curry's return as Friday against the Atlanta Hawks. The Warriors are still missing Kevin Durant, Klay Thompson, and Omri Casspi, and have been led in scoring the past three games by sophomore Quinn Cook.

The Dubs have already wrapped up a playoff spot and their fourth straight Pacific Division title, but are limping down the stretch and are in danger of not clinching the NBA's best record for the first time since 2013-14.
