Wood (thumb) was cleared for full practice Thursday, Tim MacMahon of ESPN.com reports.

Wood will remain out for Thursday's game against the Pelicans, but getting fully cleared for practice marks the final step in his recovery process from a fractured left thumb. He'll accompany the team on its upcoming five-game road trip, though it's unclear if Wood will get enough practice time under his belt to be available for Saturday's game at Golden State. Since he's not returning from any sort of lower-body injury, Wood shouldn't face a significant minutes restriction whenever he's cleared to play.
