In Saturday’s demolition of the Charlotte Hornets, the Warriors became the first team in league history to make at least 20 3-pointers in three consecutive games, and also became the only franchise to have at least 10 players make a triple in three straight games.

SAN FRANCISCO – Steph Curry, after missing the Warriors’ last five games, was a full participant in Wednesday’s practice and scrimmage and is on track to return from a left quad injury Friday against the Minnesota Timberwolves at Chase Center.

As the team’s top point-of-attack defender, Melton can take the opponent’s toughest perimeter matchup, freeing up Curry to focus more on offense. It is a role Thompson thrived in for over a decade in the Bay Area.
