Klay Thompson will have no minutes restriction in Game 4 of NBA Finals

Klay Thompson is back.

After missing one game with a strained hamstring, the Warriors sharpshooter is active and will have no minutes restriction against the Raptors in Game 4 of the NBA Finals on Friday, coach Steve Kerr told reporters Friday before the game.

The Warriors missed Thompson in Game 3, as Golden State couldn't muster enough offense -- or contain the Raptors on defense -- in losing to Toronto 123-109. The Warriors now find themselves in a two-games-to-one hole in the best-of-seven series.

Before Wednesday's Game 3, Klay had not missed a playoff game in his career, appearing in all 120 of the Warriors' postseason games over the past seven seasons.

Klay scored 21 points in Game 1 and 25 points in Game 2 before injuring himself early in the fourth quarter. The Warriors will need his sturdy two-way play in order to even up the series before Game 5 on Monday in Toronto.
