Warriors coach Steve Kerr said that hes pleased with Stephen Currys progress before the team hosted the Portland Trail Blazers on Monday.
I think hes coming along well, Kerr said. I didnt ask [Warriors trainer] Chelsea [Lane], like, is he a day ahead of schedule or anything like that, Kerr said. Hes just coming along well. Everythings going smoothly.
Curry, who is expected to be sidelined with a sprained right ankle at least until Dec. 19, is no longer in a walking boot. He worked out on a stationary bike during the teams shoot around Monday morning.

The Warriors superstar suffered the injury in New Orleans and missed the teams last two games of their six-game road trip. Curry returned home to Oakland before the Warriors final away game at Detroit, but he apparently really missed his teammates.
The two-time MVP photoshopped himself into a photo of the team on the plane returning home, and posted it to his Instagram page on Sunday.
(Yes, thats him hugging a stuffed animal on the floor.)
Kerr chuckled when asked if hed seen the photo, and said that his wife had indeed shown it to him.
I think he loves being part of the group, so he had to insert himself into the group since he wasnt there, Kerr said. Its good to see him in the locker room and on the practice floor even though hes not working yet. Its just good to have him around.
