Warriors' Damian Jones cleared for contact, will play in 3-on-3 games originally appeared on nbcsportsbayarea.com

HOUSTON - Warriors center Damian Jones has been cleared for contact, prompting the final stage of his recovery from a torn pectoral muscle, Golden State coach Steve Kerr announced in Houston on Friday.

Jones, who injured his shoulder in December, has traveled with the Warriors throughout the playoffs and has been seen doing a number of exercises following team practices and shootarounds.

With the clearance, Kerr said that Jones will participate in 3-on-3 games with teammates, but offered no word on if the third-year big man will return in the postseason.

Entering the season, Jones, who averaged a career-high 5.4 points, 3.1 assists and a block, looked to solidify the starting center position, winning the role following training camp. However, his season was cut short after getting tangled under the basket with Detroit Pistons big man Andre Drummond in a 111-102 road loss.

The Warriors are thin at center right now with DeMarcus Cousins on the shelf due to a torn left quad, so a healthy Jones would be a big boost to the Warriors' depth issues.
