The Warriors haven’t lost since Steph Curry has been sidelined with an ankle injury, but they’ll be put to the test for at least a few more games as Curry continues to recover.
On Tuesday evening, Golden State announced that Curry was re-evaluated by the team’s medical staff and that the Warriors’ star is making good progress in his efforts to rehabilitate a sprained ankle he suffered in New Orleans earlier this month. However, the team also announced that Curry will be re-evaluated again in a week, which means he is likely to miss the Warriors’ next four games.
Golden State returns to Oracle Arena on Wednesday night to host the Memphis Grizzlies before taking on the Lakers on Friday and the Nuggets on Saturday. The nationally televised Christmas showdown with the Cavaliers will take place on Christmas Day on Monday, which falls inside the window that Curry is still expected to miss.
The Warriors also listed Draymond Green (shoulder), Zaza Pachulia (shoulder) and Shaun Livingston (knee) as questionable for Wednesday night’s game. All three of those players as well as Curry were forced to miss Monday night’s overtime victory over the Lakers at Staples Center with their respective injuries.
