SAN FRANCISCO — Warriors forward Draymond Green will return Monday against the Utah Jazz after missing the last five games because of a torn ligament in his left index finger.
“It’s improved. It’s not all the way 100%, but I’ll be waiting until March for a finger to become 100%,” Green said after shootaround Monday. “So you just get it to where you can tolerate it and move forward.”
Green suffered the injury on Nov. 1 against the San Antonio Spurs. Although he played 34 minutes in the loss, his finger was wrapped after the game when he told reporters that he couldn’t dribble or pass with his left hand.
