**San Francisco, CA** – Golden State Warriors stars Stephen Curry and Andrew Wiggins will return to the starting lineup for Sunday’s game against the Phoenix Suns, ending injury concerns for the team. Both players were initially listed as questionable; Curry due to a knee injury sustained in a previous game, and Wiggins with an ankle injury. However, after being monitored during pre-game workouts, both were cleared to play.

Curry, in 14 games this season, is averaging 22.4 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 6.4 assists. Wiggins, playing in 16 games, boasts averages of 17.4 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 2.3 assists, while also displaying career-best shooting efficiency.

The Western Conference playoff race is incredibly tight. The Warriors, currently 12-6 and holding the third seed, are just one game behind the second-place Houston Rockets and two behind the top-seeded Oklahoma City Thunder. However, they are also only 3.5 games ahead of the Sacramento Kings in 11th place. The return of Curry and Wiggins provides a significant boost to the Warriors’ hopes of securing a favorable playoff position.
