Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry suffered an injury during the game against the Los Angeles Clippers on Oct. 27 and has been sidelined ever since. Although he is expected to be re-evaluated on November 1, initial reports suggest that he will be evaluated daily.
Curry’s absence is a blow to the Warriors, who have started the season with a 4-1 record. However, the team is more concerned about Curry’s long-term health than his short-term performance.
If Stephen Curry can make a full recovery and return to the court in top form, the Warriors will see their resources bolstered as they fight in the NBA season that is just beginning.
“Around him, the sense is this could be an injury that goes about a week, and that would put him at early next week,” said NBA Insider Shams Charania on ESPN. “The Warriors and Stephen Curry, they’re taking it day by day… they’re going to be cautious.”
