This is certainly a big relief for the team and the fans. Curry was instrumental in the Warriors’ win over the Wizards. He made some big plays in the fourth quarter. And finished the game with 26 points, six assists and five rebounds.
Unfortunately for the Warriors, Curry wasn’t the only player to leave the game injured. Draymond Green, who just returned to the lineup after missing three games due to illnesswas forced to leave the game in the first quarter with a strained left calf.
Speaking of Green, Kerr said he will get an MRI on Sunday. And both Curry and Green seem to be considered day-to-day at this point. The Warriors play again on Monday against the defending champion Boston Celtics.
As the team and its fans would hope they have the best player in form for the game against the defending champions, his status will be one to look out for on the injury report. However, it remains to be seen if Curry will return to action in the next game or not.
