Warriors Rule Stephen Curry Out for Two More Games, Set Tuesday Re‑Evaluation as Live Practices Begin

Live-contact work is the next step for the 38-year-old guard, a pivotal move for a team that has slipped to 10th in the West without him.

Overview

  • Golden State said Curry is making good progress from patellofemoral pain syndrome with bone bruising and will join live action and team practices in the coming days.
  • Curry will miss road games at Atlanta on Saturday and at Dallas on Monday and is scheduled for another medical evaluation when the team returns home Tuesday.
  • His absence will reach 22 straight games since Jan. 30, with the Warriors 10-21 without him this season compared with 23-16 when he plays.
  • Local reporting has floated a potential return as soon as Wednesday’s home game against Brooklyn, contingent on next week’s evaluation and no setbacks.
  • The Warriors’ injury list remains lengthy for the Hawks game, and Moses Moody (right wrist sprain) is also progressing toward live action with a re-evaluation set for Tuesday.
