Warriors reportedly reveal Steph Curry's status for Clippers game after win over Lakers
The Golden State Warriors watched vintage Steph Curry on Friday night against the Los Angeles Lakers. The organization has already made a decision for him against the Los Angeles Clippers.
The Golden State Warriors have revealed that Steph Curry will not play in their upcoming game against the Los Angeles Clippers, according to a report from The Sporting News. This decision comes after a win over the Lakers, following a challenging season start for the Warriors. The team had been struggling early on but has since shown improvement, largely due to the health of their players.
Steph Curry, a franchise legend, has had concerns about his knee throughout the season. While there were initial worries about his knee, Curry and his trainers have devised strategies to manage it, allowing him to potentially play the majority of games. Before the season, Curry had stated that his knee was feeling fine, but recent developments have raised questions about his ability to play.
The Warriors announced on Saturday that Curry will be managed out of the Clippers game, emphasizing injury management as a top priority. Curry himself has acknowledged the need to plan for his body's well-being, a sentiment that resonates with his veteran status. Despite his reluctance to sit out, the health of the team is a significant factor in this decision.
With Brandin Podziemski available, the Warriors face a more straightforward decision. Curry's ability to continue playing throughout the season will be closely monitored, with the NBA keeping a close eye on his progress. Other notable NBA news includes the 76ers addressing injuries for LeBron James, Jaylen Brown, and Joel Embiid, as well as the Thunder's decision to no longer sign a particular ex-Raptors guard due to injury concerns.
Additionally, the Lakers are reportedly scouting two elite athletes from the Pelicans for potential roster-boosting trade possibilities.
