According to the Warriors general manager Bob Myers, the two-weeks given is still not guaranteed that Curry would be coming back to the floor.
Because of this, Curry won’t be playing for the Game 5 and more in the first round of the playoffs. And of course, even some games from the second round against eh L.A. Clippers.
On game 4, Curry slipped on a wet spot while guarding Rockets’ Trevor Ariza at the end of the first half. He then grabbed his knee and looked pained.
He was brought to the locker room Steph even went to the court and tried doing lateral movements but, he walked back to the bench shaking his head then headed back to the locker room.
“He’s one of the biggest competitors I’ve ever been around,” said Draymond Green on USA Today.
“He wants to be out there. He wants to play,” he added.
Still, the Warriors won in Game 4, 121-94.
