Stephen Curry is traveling with the Golden State Warriors on their six-game road trip, but the team revealed that two more players - Seth Curry and Al Horford - will be sidelined for at least a week with injuries. The Warriors have struggled without their superstar guard, going 9-18 this season when Curry has been out. Coach Steve Kerr said it's important for the team's morale to have Curry with them, even though he is still limited to individual workouts and unlikely to play on the trip.

Why it matters

The Warriors have been decimated by injuries this season, with Curry missing significant time and now two more key players joining the injury report. This has severely impacted the team's performance, as they have struggled to win games without their star player. The team's depth is being tested, and their playoff hopes could be in jeopardy if the injuries continue to mount.

The details

Curry has missed 17 consecutive games due to right knee pain and inflammation, and is not expected to play during the team's six-game road trip. The Warriors also revealed that Seth Curry has a mild left groin strain and Al Horford has a mild left calf strain, with both players to be evaluated again in a week. The team rested several other players on the first night of a back-to-back, and signed center Omer Yurtseven to a 10-day contract to add depth.

  • Curry has missed 17 consecutive games since January 30.
  • Curry's next evaluation is not expected until next weekend, after the Warriors have already played 5 games on their road trip.
  • Seth Curry and Al Horford will be evaluated again in a week.

What they’re saying

— Steve Kerr, Head Coach

“He's just one of one and this is the longest stretch that I can remember being without him since I think it was 2020 when he missed the basically the whole season.”

The team's depth is being tested, and they will need to find a way to win games without their star players if they want to remain in contention for a postseason berth.
