Golden State Warriors forward Andre Iguodala has been upgraded to probable after missing Game 2 of their playoff series with the Denver Nuggets.
Iguodala played in Game 1 of the series and had a meaningful 13 minutes for the Warriors; however, a neck injury kept him out of their second meeting. Fortunately, he's feeling better now and was able to join the team's practice on Wednesday, per Anthony Slater of The Athletic.
Andre Iguodala is probable for Game 3 in Denver, per Kerr. Practiced today. Neck is feeling better.

While Andre Iguodala's numbers don't pop out, he remains a strong presence for the Warriors. He is a stabilizing force that provides leadership and quality minutes when the Dubs need it the most. Iguodala made two rebounds, four assists and one block during his brief stint in Game 1, and he was a +11 in the plus-minus box score–proof of how effective he is on his supporting role in Golden State.
Hopefully, Iguodala will be at 100 percent health when the Warriors visit the Nuggets in Denver for Game 3 on Thursday. The Dubs, especially the playoff newbies, could really use his veteran presence as they play in a hostile environment.
The Nuggets are down 0-2 against the Warriors, so the intensity at Pepsi Center in a must-win game for the home team is expected to be really high.
