Steph Curry, who has been out for quite some time with a leg injury, is expected to make his return to action on Sunday when the Golden State Warriors begin a three-game road trip in Los Angeles against the Lakers.

On Thursday night, as the Warriors were playing the Los Angeles Clippers, national reporter Chris Haynes of Bleacher Report and TNT made the announcement, per the Golden State of Mind.

The 34-year-old sharpshooter has been out since February 4 due to a partial rupture of his superior tibiofibular ligaments, a tear of his interosseous membrane, and a contusion of his left lower leg.

Even though Steph Curry hasn't played in a month, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr doesn't think his conditioning will be a problem.

"He's been working really hard," Steve Kerr noted, per NBC Sports.
