DeMarcus Cousins takes another step in recovery process

OAKLAND — DeMarcus Cousins participated in a full-contact scrimmage Friday as the Warriors star continues to progress from a quad injury that has sidelined him through much of the playoffs.

Coach Steve Kerr could not recall the last time Cousins scrimmaged but liked what he saw from the center.

Stephen Curry agreed.

“He looked good considering what he’s been through the last year and a half, having not been on the court for almost a month,” Curry said. “He’s making strides.”

Injured April 15 in the first round against the Clippers, Cousins is hopeful that he’ll be back for the NBA finals that begin Thursday.
