On Sunday night, Steph Curry sustained a left peroneal strain in his ankle, which has sidelined him for multiple Warriors games. Fans have been eagerly awaiting his return, and the latest injury update offers some hopeful news.
The Golden State Warriors announced that Curry was re-evaluated today and has been cleared to participate in parts of practice ahead of their game against the Houston Rockets. Although he won’t be playing against the Rockets, he is scheduled for another evaluation on Sunday. Here’s the official statement from the team:
“Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry, who has missed the last two games due to a left peroneal strain, was re-evaluated earlier today. The re-evaluation indicated that Curry is making good progress and, as a result, he has been cleared to return to segments of the team’s practice tonight in Houston. He will not play in tomorrow’s game against the Rockets and will be re-evaluated again on Sunday.”
Anthony Slater of *The Athletic* reports that Steph Curry could potentially make his return on Monday in the game against the Washington Wizards.
Despite Steph Curry’s absence, the Golden State Warriors have convincingly defeated the New Orleans Pelicans in both matchups, going 2-0. While the Houston Rockets pose their own unique challenges, the Warriors’ depth has shown its strength and effectiveness so far.
