Golden State Warriors forward Andre Iguodala plans to return from a knee injury during Game 3 of the NBA Finals, ESPN’s Chris Haynes reported Monday.

Haynes reported Monday Iguodala, the 2015 NBA Finals MVP,  had been pain free for several days after missing the Warriors’ past six games due to a left lateral leg contusion and bone bruise.

In 13 games this postseason, Iguodala averaged 47.9 percent from the field and 35.5 beyond the arc for 7.9 points, 4.9 rebounds and 3.1 assists.
