After several months out with a hip injury, Warriors veteran Andre Iguodala is likely to make his debut this Saturday for the home of the Magic. Information sourced by… himself. Awesome. The 2015 Finals MVP will finally join Steve Kerr’s group to try to chart a better second half of the season in San Francisco.
The Warriors’ problems are finally solved! The staff of Golden State obtained the agreement of the retirement home, and Andre Iguodala will be able to reintegrate the Dub Nation. No more worries about the ranking therefore, the infallible grigri of the Bay is very close to the return. Nothing more can happen. We Believe, as the young people said in 2007. So, when is the long-awaited return? See you tomorrow, if all goes as planned. Indeed, the Warriors are hosting the Orlando Magic this Saturday, and Iggy has personally announced that he will be there. Well, not really “personally”, but he said it in his podcast Point Forward with Evan Turner.

Like Udonis Haslem, Andre Iguodala is one of the deans of the Great League, the darons, those who today act as much as assistant coaches as players, or even more for some. But the old winger can still bring to the field. If he could only play 31 games last season, Iggy occupied a place of choice during these with 19.5 minutes per game, over 37 (we don’t know if he too is inspired by LeBron’s routine, but it seems to work better than for Haslem). In short, Andre will soon celebrate his 39 brooms but seems to want to blow out his candles on the pitch.
At the moment, the Warriors are still struggling, pointing to the 8th place in the Western Conference awaiting returns from Stephen Curry and Andrew Wiggins. So if the referees allow crutches on the field, Dede Iguodala should be able to provide a nice interim in the San Francisco Bay.
