The Golden State Warriors have just announced that, barring any setbacks, Kevin Durant will return to the lineup this Saturday against the New Orleans Pelicans.
Durant has missed the Warriors' last 19 games after suffering a Grade 2 MCL sprain and tibial bone bruise during a game against the Wizards on February 28th.
The Warriors are currently riding a 13-game winning streak and have already locked up the #1 seed in the Western Conference AND now they're getting back a guy who was averaging 25.3 points, 8.2 rebounds, and 4.8 assists a night?
Golden State has just three regular season games remaining, which will be used solely to get KD back into the swing of things, before the playoffs begin.
