Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green cleared the COVID-19 protocol on Sunday and is expected to play in Monday’s game against the visiting Miami Heat, according to multiple reports.
Green missed two games since going into protocol on Dec. 26. The 10-year veteran would have missed a third but Golden State’s game against the Denver Nuggets on Dec. 30 was postponed due to Denver’s COVID-19 issues.
Green, 31, is averaging 8.4 points, 7.9 rebounds, 7.5 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.2 blocks in 31 games this season.
The Warriors (28-7) own the best record in the NBA.
