OAKLAND, Calif. -- Golden State Warriors center DeMarcus Cousins is 'unlikely' to return during the postseason after tearing his left quad during Monday's Game 2 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers.
"He will not need surgery," Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said after Wednesday's practice. "DeMarcus, most likely, will not be back during the playoffs. You're probably looking at a couple months' recovery, so it's unlikely. But [Warriors Director of Sports Medicine and Performance] Rick [Celebrini] told me that there are occasions where that injury heals faster. So we're leaving the door open, obviously.
