Answer
Hi
I would clean the throttle body with GM Top Engine cleaner (aerosol spray). That would be my first and best suggestion. It is probably carboned up, and the throttle blade is sticking.
Spray the cleaner in the throttle and wipe it with a clean lint free cloth. It may take more than one attempt to totally clean the bore.
