With Kevin Durant set to be re-evaluated by team doctors in less than a week, the Warriors' coaches are in the preliminary phases of planning for his return. Durant has missed 12 games with a sprained medial collateral ligament (MCL) and bone bruise to his left knee. Golden State's game Sunday against the Grizzlies could be a preview of its first round matchup in the playoffs. With 10 regular-season games left, the 58-14 Warriors are nursing a 2½-game lead over San Antonio for the Western Conference's top seed. When the Grizzlies beat the Warriors on Jan. 6, they became the first team to top Golden State twice in the same regular season since the Spurs in 2014-15.
