Stephen Curry is inching closer to a return, but it sounds like he'll need the Warriors to survive their first-round playoff series to make it happen.

Golden State's star guard is targeting a return sometime during the second round of the playoffs, Yahoo Sports reported on Saturday morning (AEST) — assuming the Warriors are able to get past the Spurs in the meantime.
Curry has played in only one game since March 8 and hasn't seen the court at all since March 23 due to a sprained knee ligament suffered that night.
He is due for a three-week evaluation of the injury Sunday, the report said.
While the Warriors have no shortage of impact players even without Curry, they lost 10 of their last 17 games down the stretch.
