"Andris Biedrins said he hasn't had a setback in his rehabilitation from a strain in the groin and abdomen region, but the center was unable to make his projected return Saturday against Phoenix.

"I need another practice with the team to get our timing right," Biedrins said. "I haven't played in a while, so I need some body contact and some 5-on-5 to be ready. My conditioning is pretty good, but I need to find my timing in the game."

Biedrins has increased his scoring and rebounding numbers each of his first five seasons in the league, topping out at 11.9 points and 11.2 rebounds a game in 2008-09. He's averaging six points and 7.3 rebounds in four games this season.

During the past week, Biedrins has been able to increase his conditioning work in practice and before games, and he's worked himself back into many full-court sets at practice.

He will have missed exactly seven weeks if he is able to return for his new target date, Monday against Boston.

The Warriors have been outrebounded in 19 of 23 games with one tie since Biedrins was injured Nov. 8 at Sacramento."
