Stephen Curry Injury Update Before Kings Game
Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry may miss Wednesday’s game against the Sacramento Kings due to illness. Following Tuesday’s win over the Phoenix Suns, he revealed that he has been battling a cold and feeling unusually tired.
“I was running out of energy toward the end,” Curry said after the game. “I’ll see how I feel after checking with the medical staff, but we’ll make the smart call.”
Despite scoring 28 points and hitting five three-pointers in the victory, Curry admitted that his energy dropped in the second half, prompting internal discussions about resting him for the next matchup. The decision will be made after consulting team doctors.
The Warriors might also be missing forward Jimmy Butler, who exited the same game with a back issue. Head coach Steve Kerr noted that playing without both stars would test the team’s depth and flexibility.
Oddsmakers have already adjusted their projections, making Sacramento a 3.5-point favorite amid growing uncertainty about Curry’s status and the Warriors’ full lineup.
