3 years agoGolden State Warriors power forward/center Nemanja Bjelica (back) has been given the green light to suit up for Thursday's game against the Knicks, halting his absence at six contests. Bjelica has been a solid bench contributor for the Warriors this season, although he has reached double figures in scoring just once in his past 13 outings. Traditionally utilized as a stretch forward, Bjelica has shot just 14.8% from behind the arc in that span. With Otto Porter Jr. (rest) and Andre Iguodala (back) ruled out Thursday, Bjelica and Jonathan Kuminga figure to step into solid frontcourt roles, although the Warriors will likely ease the veteran back into the mix.--Jesse Borek
