Golden State Warriors forward Andre Iguodala will return for Game 3 of the NBA Finals on Wednesday against the Cleveland Cavaliers, the team announced before tip-off.
Iguodala has missed the last six games with a knee injury.

The former Wildcat’s return boosts a Warriors team that is looking to take a 3-0 lead in Cleveland. No team has ever come back from a 3-0 deficit, so a win Wednesday would all but wrap up Golden State’s third title in the last four years.
Wednesday’s tip-off is set for 6 p.m. PT on ABC.
Iguodala is expected to help defend LeBron James, who is averaging 40 points, 10.5 assists, and 8.5 rebounds in the series.
