Warriors game day: How will Kevin Durant look in return?

Steve Kerr, 3rd season with Warriors (205-38 with Warriors and overall); Alvin Gentry, 2nd season with Pelicans (63-97 with Pelicans and 398-467 overall) On air: TV on NBC Sports Bay Area; Radio on 95.7 The Game Warriors: PG Shaun Livingston (5.1 ppg, 1.7 apg), SG Klay Thompson (22.5 ppg, 3.7 rpg), SF Kevin Durant (25.3 ppg, 8.2 rpg), PF Draymond Green (10.2 ppg, 7.9 rpg, 7.1 apg), C Zaza Pachulia (6.1 ppg, 5.8 rpg) Pelicans: PG Tim Frazier (7.2 ppg, 5.1 apg), SG Jrue Holiday (15.6 ppg, 7.2 apg), SF Solomon Hill (6.9 ppg, 3.8 rpg), PF Donatas Motiejunas (4.1 ppg, 3.0 rpg), C Alexis Ajinca (4.6 ppg, 4.3 rpg) Warriors injury report: SF Kevin Durant (left knee injury) is probable. PG Stephen Curry (left knee contusion) and SF Kevon Looney (left hip strain) are out. Pelicans injury report: C Omer Asik (illness), C DeMarcus Cousins (right Achilles tendonitis), PF Anthony Davis (left knee soreness) and SG Quincy Pondexter (left knee) are out. After missing 19 games with a left knee injury, the eight-time All-Star is set to return Saturday. The question is how teammates will respond to having him back in the fold. With Durant watching from the bench, the Warriors played some of their best basketball of the season. [...] it hardly bodes well for the Pelicans that Golden State is holding opponents to 99.9 points on 41.6 percent shooting during its current 13-game winning streak. Head coach Steve Kerr reckons that the trickiest part of Durant’s return will be reshuffling his substitution patterns. [...] fans will get a better sense of the rotation when Curry is added back to the fold.
