Golden State leads the best-of-seven series 1-0 after a 123-101 rout in the opener Saturday.
Curry has scrimmaged with some of the reserves and the Warriors brass and medical staff determined he is ready for game action.
He was injured March 23 in the same game where he had come back from a six-game absence with a right ankle injury.
