Curry, who hasn't played in nearly a month with a sprained ligament in his left foot, said he won't miss a minute of the Warriors' return to the playoffs in teammate Draymond Green's podcast.
"The goal has always been (to be ready for) the first game, it still is," explained the leader, during the "Draymond Green Show".
"(I'm) Very optimistic that it will be (good for) the first game."
"We haven't been in the playoffs for two years, recalled the 34-year-old player, champion with the Warriors in 2015, 2017 and 2018. I'm very excited because I know how much I like this atmosphere. I don't want to miss a thing."
Curry took part in his team's practice on Wednesday.
After a flamboyant first half of the season, the Warriors slowed down a bit after the All-Star Game, and finally finished the regular season in third place, behind the untouchable Phoenix Suns and the surprising Memphis Grizzlies.
Almost complete with the highly anticipated return of Klay Thompson, the other "splash bro", the Warriors will face the Denver Nuggets, led by reigning MVP Nikola Jokic.
The first game of the series will take place on Sunday (2:30 a.m.).
