NBA Rumors: Warriors expect Steph Curry to potentially miss multiple games due to injury | News, results, highlights, statistics and rumors

According to ESPN's Kendra Andrews, the Golden State Warriors are preparing to be without star guard Stephen Curry for “potentially several games.”

The two-time MVP suffered a left ankle sprain in Sunday's 112-104 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers. He had 18 points and six assists in 27 minutes on the court.

After the game, head coach Steve Kerr said Curry described his injury as “mild or moderate,” adding that the player would need to receive an MRI to determine the full severity.

Even before losing Curry, Kerr was relying on a strong rotation to start the 2024-25 season. Fourteen players appeared in Golden State's first game, a 140-104 win over the Portland Trail Blazers, and the coach appears to be opting for a 12-man roster.

“I’ve never played 12,” Kerr told reporters after the Blazers’ win. “But we will do it. It’s not easy for anyone, but we just have to trust from one evening to the next that we can find the combination that works.”

Now the Warriors might get a much better idea of ​​how much depth they actually have.

There isn't a single player in Golden State – or in the NBA for that matter – who can completely replicate what Curry does. The combined performance of several players could at least serve as an imitation of the 10-time All-Star.
