Richard Jefferson (calf) returned to action on Friday, scoring two points on 1-of-2 shooting with three rebounds and three assists in 13 minutes.

Jefferson's most unique asset is that the Warriors were willing to add $11 million to their cap next season just so Stephen Jackson wouldn't step foot in the facility.

Richard Jefferson (calf) did not play on Friday against the Nets.

Jefferson said he would play, but like most players he was over-optimistic. His absence does not impact the rotation much, if at all in Golden State, though the $11 million the Warriors inexplicably took on for RJ just to rid themselves of Stephen Jackson will hurt them for another year and a half.

Richard Jefferson (strained calf) will miss a third straight game vs. the Nuggets on Friday.

RJ didn't travel with the Warriors to Denver and it's not clear when he'll return to action. It's conceivable that he could play in Saturday's home game, but it seems more likely that he'd wait until the following Thursday, giving him five extra days of rest.
