Warriors’ head coach Steve Kerr hadn’t made up his mind yet. But Kerr’s trusted assistant Mike Brown had.

Stephen Curry will miss at least two weeks, while Patrick McCaw and Zaza Pachulia are questionable for Wednesday’s game at Charlotte.

Steph Curry suffered a right thigh contusion on Saturday evening in the first quarter of the Warriors’ victory over the 76ers, but Curry was able to play through the pain and help lead Golden State to its sixth straight blowout win.

The Warriors and the point guard have agreed to a two-way contract according to Shams Charania of The Athletic. He played 14 games combined with the Mavericks and Pelicans last season, and spent training camp with the Hawks.
