Golden State Warriors guard De'Anthony Melton is slated to make his season debut on Thursday night against the host Philadelphia 76ers.
Melton (knee) was no longer listed on the Wednesday injury report.
Melton partially tore the ACL in his left knee during a game against the Dallas Mavericks on Nov. 12, 2024. He underwent season-ending surgery on Dec. 4, making it exactly one year from the surgery to his Thursday return to action.
It is a timely return for the Warriors as star guard Stephen Curry (quadriceps) will miss the three-game road trip.
The Warriors traded Melton to the Brooklyn Nets in mid-December as part of a trade to obtain Dennis Schroder. Melton later re-signed with Golden State as a free agent on Oct. 1.
Melton, 27, averaged 10.3 points, 3.3 rebounds and 2.8 assists in
