“We did a little bit of scrimmaging yesterday, and all three guys felt good this morning,” Warriors coach Steve Kerr said ahead of the Finals opener. “We’ll see how it plays out. I think a lot of our decisions, especially here in Game 1, you’ve got to feel how the game is going, try to decide what combinations we need out there. But it’s great to have all three guys back, and I think all three can contribute for sure.”
