Stephen Curry is expected to be available to play against the Brooklyn Nets on Tuesday, after rolling his ankle by stepping on Zaza Pachulia's foot during a Friday night game against the Atlanta Hawks, according to Logan Murdock of the San Jose Mercury News.

Curry had a full three days after tweaking his right ankle and participated fully in Monday's morning practice. He was seen throwing down a dunk at the end of his post-practice shooting routine — a sign that his ankles had enough strength to provide the lift-off.

Curry first hurt his ankle in the first quarter of the game, bouncing back up but being taken out fairly soon after and taken back to the locker room for further examination. He would return midway through the second quarter after his usual rest, scoring 11 of his 15 points in the period within two minutes and two seconds of stepping back on the floor, totaling 25 points at the half.

His night would end in the third quarter after burying another 3-pointer, totaling 28 points for the game and sitting out the remainder of this outing after head physician Chelsea Lane advised head coach Steve Kerr to rest him as a precaution.

The Warriors have won five straight games since coming back from the break, closely tailing the Houston Rockets, who are only a half game ahead for the league's best record.

Curry leads the team in scoring with a 27.7 points per game average, and his presence will prove pivotal in these remaining games if the Warriors are to shoot for the No. 1 seed in the West.
