Currently on the flank, Stephen Curry is waiting to know when he will be able to return to the field. Information on this subject has just been revealed to the public… and not sure that Dubs fans will find themselves particularly reassured.
With three consecutive defeats, the Warriors would definitely need a Stephen Curry in shape. Last night’s setback against the Suns (107-103) cost them third place in the Western Conference, with Dallas moving back ahead in the standings. Steve Kerr’s men lacked lucidity in the money time and generally did not have the compass in the eye during the meeting (42% shooting, including 34% from distance). Impossible to win like this against the best record in the league (62-14).
Recovering his franchise player would therefore not hurt the squad of the Bay, but the question is to know when it will be possible. Indeed, the foot injury of the triple champion is quite annoying and the coaching staff cannot afford to take risks with him. The latest update from GS on his favorite player goes in this direction: the Chief has not yet resumed training, and we will have to wait a little longer before having a clear idea of the situation.
Stephen Curry still stuck in the infirmary
Steve Kerr says Stephen Curry still has not returned to on-court activity. He’s working with head trainer Rick Celebrini in the weight room and in the pool. His official re-evaluation date is Friday.

The news is not the most reassuring for Dubs fans, who must continue to wait. The good news is that for the moment, the number 30 is not automatically forfeited for the meeting against Jazz, which will be held on April 2.
The next 24 hours will therefore be crucial for the double MVP, as it is imperative for him that he finds even a semblance of rhythm before the playoffs. The interested party signed one of his worst seasons in a career in 2021-22, with regard to marksmanship (43% including 38% at three points). It shouldn’t drag on any longer, especially if his franchise were to face the Cactus again on their way to the Finals.
Monty Williams’ men are indeed untenable in their last 12 games (only one defeat, and only two in the whole of March). Devin Booker manages the house with a master hand with 26.8 points per game at 37.6% behind the arc, well supported by Deandre Ayton, Chris Paul and Mikal Bridges (not far from 49 points in total per game).
Stephen Curry is still in the dark, which is not to help the affairs of the Warriors. The latter need their boss to go far in the post-season, and if possible in the best possible shape…
