The return of Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry was crucial to his team’s victory over the Washington Wizards in the NBA. However, coach Steve Kerr decided to limit his minutes on the court to prevent a potential relapse.

During the post-game press conference, Curry provided an important update on his injury: ā€œI feel good. It’s just still early in the year and you’re trying to build up the endurance. Ankle feels fine. It’s just you don’t wanna get in a position where you get fatigued and put yourself in jeopardy.ā€

Curry also made a candid admission about the injury: ā€œI made a misjudgment on that one because it was right away. The adrenaline got the best of me.ā€ Fortunately, Curry avoided a serious injury and is now back in good shape.
