Netflix’s recent program, “The Roast of Kevin Hart,” was full of cruel jokes, including one featuring comedian Jeff Ross. Golden State Warriors Stars Draymond Green and Stephen Curry.

When it was time for him to speak, Ross took aim at Green, claiming he was “carried” by Curry throughout his time in the program and on the Warriors.

“Steph Curry couldn’t come tonight, but he took Draymond Green here,” Ross said before emphasizing not to take it personal with another cruel joke.

He said, “I love you, buddy. I won’t make fun of you because you’re violent. You’ve been kicked out more times than Kevin Hart’s DVD.”

In line with Ross’s joke, draymond green Has been fouled more than 20 times so far in his NBA career. That’s actually more than any other active player in the league.

Stephen Curry and Draymond Green have led the Warriors to four championships

Curry and Green have been teammates since 2012, when Green was drafted by the Golden State Warriors. At that time, Curry had already played in the league for four years.

Since then, he has been a part of the warrior dynasty. The team has won four NBA championships in this era, in 2015, 2017, 2018, and 2022. Green is a four-time NBA All-Star, and was named Defensive Player of the Year in 2017.

Additionally, he is a nine-time All-Defensive player, making five first teams and four second teams. Additionally, Green is also a four-time NBA All-Star, was named Defensive Player of the Year in 2017, and is a nine-time All-Defensive player, making five first teams and four second teams.

During this time, Stephen Curry Is a 12-time NBA All-Star. He is also a two-time league MVP, winning it consecutively in 2015 and 2016. Curry has also been named to the All-NBA First Team four times, and has made five All-NBA Second Teams.

In particular, Curry has become famous for his three-point shooting. The 38-year-old Ohio native has the most three-pointers in NBA history, nearly 1,000 more than the next highest player (James Harden). He also holds the record for most three-pointers in a season, making 402 during the 2015–16 season.

It seems like neither Stephen Curry nor coach Steve Kerr are ready to give up on each other or the Golden State Warriors just yet.

Earlier this week, there was renewed excitement about the Warriors after Curry was in great form during a 126-121 NBA play-in tournament win over the Los Angeles Clippers. Boy, can things change fast in a matter of days.

On Friday night, they head into their second play-in game, this time against the Phoenix Suns, trying to hold off the eighth seed in the West. They finished the first quarter trailing 33–15, had trouble leading the rest of the night and fell behind by a score of 111–97. It capped off a very disappointing 37-45 season that started with no real NBA Finals aspirations.

The loss created immediate speculation about the future of Curry, Kerr and fellow key member of their dynasty, Draymond Green. Curry turned 38 last month and has struggled to compete in half the games this season due to injuries. Kerr is looking battle weary over the past few years and looks like he needs a break. Green is as volatile as ever, but he’s not as effective on the court as he was during his prime.

Stephen Curry and Steve Kerr look set to return in 2026-27

Still, despite the notion that one or two of them might be gone after this season, it seems like they’re not ready to give up on each other just yet. After their loss to the Suns, Curry was optimistic that he would fully heal his troublesome knee and thought he had “many” years left in his career. Furthermore, he claimed that he is ready to sign an extension with the team. One might assume it’s for slightly less money, but with additional guarantee years.

Many felt that Kerr could enjoy his success by taking a break from coaching. But it looks like he’s not going anywhere.

“I don’t want to move away from Steph. I’m definitely not going to go and coach anywhere else in the NBA next year,” he said Friday night. “…I’ll never walk away from Steph.”

The 12-time All-Star has one season and more than $62 million left on his current contract. Kerr is officially a coaching free agent after this season.

Draymond Green hopes he’s done enough to return to the Warriors in 2026-27

“Hopefully I’ve still tried hard enough to be here.”

So what does this mean for the Greens? He was ejected from the bench in the final minutes of the game for arguing with Suns superstar Devin Booker, and his erratic behavior still has not diminished with age. Well, he hopes he is still with the same team he played for in 2026-27 as well.

“I hope I’ve done enough to still be here,” he said after the loss. “At the end of the day, if I haven’t done enough work, I don’t want to be here. I don’t want this to be a [situation] Where ‘we keep him only for what he has done before’.”

There has been much speculation that the Warriors could try to trade Green this offseason. However, he recently admitted that he is also willing to take a team waiver for an extension in order to stay with the Warriors for a few more seasons.

週五晚上，金州勇士隊以 124-118 輸給薩克拉門托國王隊，但賽後焦點轉移到布蘭丁·波齊姆斯基的里程碑式表現和斯蒂芬·庫裡輕鬆的言論上。

波傑姆斯基在 32 分鐘內拿下職業生涯最高的 30 分，外加 3 個籃板、1 次助攻和 1 次抄截。他投籃15投9中，三分線外8投3中，罰球線10投9中，在這場失利中領先勇士隊所有得分手。

賽後，柯瑞提到了德文·布克在 2017 年輸給波士頓塞爾提克隊的比賽中廣泛討論的 70 分的表現，並開玩笑說球隊計劃如何在失敗的情況下慶祝波德濟姆斯基的成就。

「我告訴他，當德文·布克在波士頓拿下 70 分而他們輸了時，我們會像德文·布克一樣對待他，給他一個標誌等等。我知道他一直在尋找它。每個人也都知道這一點，所以看到他得到它以及他得到它的方式很有趣。”

週四晚上，夏洛特黃蜂隊以 127-107 擊敗菲尼克斯太陽隊，贏得了至關重要的勝利。在奧蘭多魔術隊和邁阿密熱火隊最近失利後，這使得他們暫時在東部積分榜上排名第八，考慮到他們在 2026 年的表現，他們可能是保住這一位置的熱門人選。

這有助於新秀康·克努佩爾（Kon Knueppel）最近陷入困境，並在周四成功重回正軌。他憑藉 7 投 14 中的高效命中率，再次砍下了 20 分大關。當晚，他九次出手命中四次三分球，克努佩爾以此記錄了一段歷史，讓他與史上最偉大的射手史蒂芬·庫裡並駕齊驅。

黃蜂隊的康·克努佩爾不是普通的新秀

克努佩爾成為 2026 年 NBA 年度最佳新秀獎的熱門人選是有原因的。他已經做好了從跳投開始就進入 NBA 的準備，因為他以跳投為主的打法已經從大學水平無縫過渡到了。

他是黃蜂隊本賽季扭轉局面的重要組成部分，考慮到他的出色表現，我們很難忘記他只有 20 歲。在未來的幾年裡，他將繼續灼燒籃網，而他高效的得分能力將使他成為對手防守的頭痛問題。

The Golden State Warriors will be shorthanded against the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday as they try to post their first win in two months. With Jimmy Butler out for the season, Stephen Curry will miss his 23rd consecutive game with a right knee injury. Meanwhile, Moses Moody (left patellar tendon rupture), Quentin Post (right foot injury management), Al Horford (right soleus strain) and Seth Curry (left adductor strain) are also sidelined.

Steve Kerr clarified the Warriors’ stance on a potential Curry return during an interview on Wednesday.

“If we don’t feel good about (his knee), he’s not going to play. We’re not going to push him into anything if things aren’t really clear,” Kerr said on 95.7 The Game.

The Warriors have suffered injuries to several other rotation pieces amid the absences of Curry and Butler.

Warriors try to maintain momentum in play-in race amid injuries

Horford has missed the team’s last six games due to a calf strain. Meanwhile, Moody ruptured the patellar tendon in his left knee during Monday’s win over the Dallas Mavericks. The post mentioned a problem with his right foot. Wednesday will be his fifth absence since March 7.

The Warriors are 7-15 during Curry’s absence. They rank 25th in offense, 23rd in defense and 22nd in net rating (-5.4) during that span.

Golden State continues to hold on to 10th place in the Western Conference standings. Kerr’s team is 1.5 games behind the ninth-place Portland Trail Blazers and two games behind the eighth-place Los Angeles Clippers with 10 games remaining.

Luckily for them, the Nets will also be severely shorthanded on Wednesday. Michael Porter Jr. is out with a hamstring strain, while Noah Clowney (right wrist sprain), Nolan Traore (rest), Danny Wolf (left ankle sprain), De’Ron Sharp (left thumb surgery) and Egor Demin (left plantar fascia injury management) are also out.

Brooklyn has lost its last eight games.

The Charlotte Hornets had a strong performance from three-point territory to pick up an easy 134-90 win over the Sacramento Kings at the Spectrum Center on Tuesday.

The Hornets should have provided umbrellas before the game because they rained three-pointers on the Kings. Charlotte tied the franchise record with 26 long bombs.

Coby White and LaMelo Ball each had six three-pointers to lead the offense. Coby White scored 27 points on 9-of-12 shooting and five rebounds off the bench, while Ball had 20 points, six rebounds, eight assists and two steals.

Ball accomplished another impressive feat after passing Dell Curry to move into second place in most three-pointers in team history. Ball is now behind only Kemba Walker.

LaMelo Ball is making history in Charlotte

The Hornets improved to 38-34 and are on pace to end their nine-year playoff drought, the league’s longest active skid.

Fans praised the 24-year-old Ball for his hot shooting against the Kings.

@TheFLReaper said, “No matter how high you rate LaMelo, he’s still underrated.”

“No one in the league makes it look that effortless, and LaMelo Ball knows it. The step-back three with those moves is insulting to every defender alive at the moment,” @littledijah said.

“He’s great. We need the Hornets in the playoffs,” @TopShelfJam wrote.

@RenzWinford posted, “Deeply Melo. A boy.”

“LaMelo is making Hornets history with depth,” @braxson_grey commented.

After consecutive years on the sidelines, Ball has finally been healthy this season, and it’s no coincidence that the Hornets are playing their best ball in years.

With Ball, White, Kon Knueppel, Miles Bridges and Moussa Diabate, Charlotte could make quite a stir in the playoffs.

Amid All-Star Stephen Curry’s recovery from a right knee injury, Golden State Warriors guard Brandin Podziemski has taken on an increased role. As head coach Steve Kerr said after the three-game losing streak, the newfound opportunity has given Podziemski a boost in confidence. While Kerr’s reality check regarding the Warriors’ playoff approach was considered challenging, Kerr cannot ignore how beneficial it has been to Brandin.

Without Curry, Podziemski, in only his third season, will be one of the Warriors players Kerr will rely on, as these regular season reps will only make him better, Kerr said, according to Danny Ammerman of the San Francisco Standard.

“It’s a great experience for Brandin,” Kerr said Saturday in Atlanta. “I mean, 20 games without Steph.”

As for Podziemski, he’s learned a very important lesson amid Curry’s absence.

“[That] I can do it,” Podziemski said.

Brandin Podziemski struggled in the Warriors’ 126-110 loss to the Atlanta Hawks. He finished with five points and one assist on 2-for-6 shooting. However, he has been playing consistently well throughout March for the Warriors, averaging 16.2 points on 42.8% shooting, including 37.% from deep, 5.7 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 1.0 steals over the last 11 games.

Steve Kerr’s blunt opinion on Warriors’ ‘tough times’

Head coach Steve Kerr didn’t hold back about the Warriors struggling toward the finish line of the 2025-26 regular season without Stephen Curry. Kerr says Warriors have suffered eight defeats in nine tries this is the hardest part According to Warriors reporter Joseph Dykes, he talked about being an NBA coach for a team struggling with injuries.

“This is the hardest thing to go through,” Kerr said. “Losing and getting destroyed by injuries. And feeling like you’re pushing, you’re trying, you’re competing, but things aren’t going your way. It’s definitely a tough, tough time for everybody. It’s human nature to get down, hang your head.”

“Certainly, it’s a tough, tough time, for everybody, it’s human nature to, you know, kind of keep your head down.”

The Warriors, 33-38, have dropped to 10th, 1.5 games behind the Blazers for ninth in the Western Conference standings.

Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry has not played since Jan. 30 and has missed each of the team’s last 21 games due to what the team is repeatedly labeling as patella-femoral pain syndrome and a bone bruise in his right kneecap.

This injury has been causing persistent discomfort and swelling since before the All-Star break, causing Curry to be absent for an extended period of time.

Before Saturday’s 126-110 loss to the Atlanta Hawks, the Warriors announced that Curry continued to make “good progress” in his return and has stepped up his individual workouts. The next step, as outlined in the team’s injury update, will be to integrate him into live action and team practices in the coming days.

Head coach Steve Kerr said over the weekend that he expected Steph to participate in 5-on-5 drills on Sunday.

Unfortunately for Curry and the Warriors, he did not participate in Sunday’s 5-on-5 drills, league sources tell ClutchPoints. However, team sources are adamant that it is not being viewed as a setback and that Curry is on the same recovery timeline that was provided on Saturday.

He is expected to continue his on-court activities and will be re-evaluated when the team returns to San Francisco after Monday night’s game in Dallas.

The Warriors have been out of an abundance of caution regarding Curry’s right knee issue, which is why he was given an extra day of practice before returning to 5-on-5 play.

As reported by ClutchPoints ahead of the team’s update on Steph’s status on Saturday, the Warriors were optimistic about Curry’s return at some point following their six-game road trip. Upon returning home, seven of the team’s final 10 games of the season will be played at Chase Center, allowing Curry to receive maximum treatment for his right knee and not require him to travel as much.

For several weeks, the Warriors have been hopeful that Steph will be able to return for at least one of their two home games against the Brooklyn Nets and Washington Wizards on March 25 and March 27, respectively.

Sources said that mentality hasn’t changed, yet everything will depend on how he feels in practice Tuesday and what is said upon re-evaluation in San Francisco.

Overall, Curry and the Warriors have insisted that he not be locked up for the remainder of the 2025-26 season. Steph wants to play again before the end of the regular season, and the team remains optimistic about its chances of being competitive in the play-in tournament with Curry, despite falling in the standings without him.

In their last 21 games without Steph, Golden State has gone 6-15, 1.5 games behind the Phoenix Suns for the 7-seed and now 1.5 games behind the Portland Trail Blazers for the 9-seed in the Western Conference.

A loss to the Mavericks on Monday night would put the Warriors in an even deeper hole as the 10-seed in the West.

During his recovery process, the Warriors remained adamant that Curry had not suffered a concussion and that his injury, described as “runner’s knee”, had resulted in prolonged pain and swelling that persisted longer than originally expected.

Multiple tests and imaging confirmed that there was no further structural damage to his right knee.

As for the team’s other injury concerns, running back Moses Moody, who hasn’t played since March 2 because of a right wrist sprain, is considered questionable to play Monday night at Dallas. Veteran big man Al Horford is out with a right calf strain, but the Warriors remain optimistic he will return before the end of the regular season.

The Warriors are currently 33-38 and have lost eight of their last nine games as of Monday night.

The Golden State Warriors are without Stephen Curry since he last played on Jan. 30 in the team’s 131-124 loss against the Detroit Pistons. With the playoffs around the corner and Golden State fighting for a spot in the play-in tournament, the club receives an important update on his potential return.

According to CluthPoints insider Brett Siegel, reports indicate that the 38-year-old point guard will be ramping up his practices in the coming days after making progress on his injury. Curry will be reevaluated after the club’s six-game road trip.

“Stephen Curry is making good progress and will ramp up his practice in the coming days. He will be re-evaluated after returning home from the team’s six-game road trip and is expected to be ready to play.”

Two more games remain on the Warriors’ six-game road trip. Therefore, the probable date for Stephen Curry’s re-evaluation would be March 24. If he is healthy to return, we could see Curry in action as soon as March 25 when Golden State takes on the Brooklyn Nets at home. This means he can help the team in the last 10 games of the regular season.

Stephen Curry, a 12-time All-Star, was playing with the lights out for the Warriors before suffering a knee injury. In 39 games played this season, Curry averaged 27.2 points, 3.5 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 1.1 steals per contest, while shooting 46.8% from the floor and 39.1% from beyond the three-point line.

While the Warriors await the official status of the four-time champions in the coming days, the club will focus on their next two matches. The Warriors face the Atlanta Hawks on Saturday, then the Dallas Mavericks on Monday.

The Boston Celtics defeated the Golden State Warriors 120-99 on Wednesday. Meaning, under normal circumstances, Jaylen Brown and Stephen Curry would be facing off. However, Curry is out with a knee injury.

Last December, Brown said Curry would have to work harder in head-to-head matchups.

Now in March, Brown made a pretty shocking statement about Curry’s safety, according to NBA TV. Basically, Brown says Curry is the hardest to control because, later on, he runs out of gas.

“The toughest player is probably Steph Curry because you just have to run a lot,” Brown said.

On Wednesday, Brown led the way with 32 points, 11 of 20 from the field, 9 of 9 at the free throw line, with six rebounds and five assists. As a result, the Celtics are now 46–23, the second-best record in the Eastern Conference.

Additionally, Boston has won seven of its last 10 games and is on a three-game winning streak. Meanwhile, the Warriors are 33-36, in 10th place in the Western Conference, and have lost 8 of their last 10 games.

Overall, Brown has played in 62 games and averaged 28.5 points, 7.8 rebounds and 5.1 assists per game. Curry has played 39 games, averaging 27.2 points and 4.8 assists per game.

They have lost 19 consecutive games.

Both Brown and Curry competed against each other for the first time during the 2022 NBA Finals. Ultimately, the Warriors defeated the Celtics in six games. Curry was the Finals MVP, averaging 31.0 points, 6.0 rebounds and 5.0 assists per game.

Brown averaged 23.5 points and 7.3 rebounds.

On Thursday, the Charlotte Hornets will pay tribute to Dell Curry by retiring his jersey. The game against the Orlando Magic will be a celebration of his excellence on the field.

Additionally, Curry will get a chance to share the moment with his family, including his son Stephen Curry. Ahead of the celebration, the family openly shared the various nicknames they called him, but according to Scott Fowler of the Charlotte Observer, one stood out the most.

Fowler said that Steph and his brother Seth call Dale “Pops”. Additionally, his daughter, Sydelle Curry-Lee, calls him “Dad”. Then, Curry’s 10 grandchildren call him “Gee Daddy.”

However, for the first time, Steph shared with Fowler the nickname they use to call Dale in private.

“We call him ‘The Originator,'” Steph said of Dale. “Because all of this — all of us and our basketball family tree? It originated with him. A friend of ours gave him that nickname on a golf trip about a decade ago. And so now we run with it.”

Overall, Curry played 16 seasons in the NBA. Ten of those years were with the Hornets. Additionally, Curry became the franchise’s all-time scoring leader with 9,839 points. Additionally, he leads the league in total regular season games played with 701. In 1994, he was named the NBA’s Sixth Man of the Year.

Ultimately, Curry finished his career with 12,670 points, 2,617 rebounds and 1,909 assists. Additionally, Curry finished his career with 1,245 3-pointers, 929 of which came with the Hornets.

Also during his tenure in Charlotte, Curry led them to four playoff appearances in 1993, 1994, 1995, and 1998.

Stephen Curry is currently dealing with a knee injury, which has kept him out of the Golden State Warriors’ last 19 games. Although it is unclear exactly when he will return, head coach Steve Kerr is optimistic that he will return before the end of the season. Still, after Curry was out, the Dubs’ troubles continued, as they lost another game on Wednesday night, a 120–99 loss on the road to the Boston Celtics.

However, some fans may be desperate to see Curry back in action. In fact, one fan in attendance at TD Garden on Wednesday was so desperate to get Curry’s attention that he crossed a line – pulling the Warriors star towards him, causing Curry to face a confused concussion.

This action of the fan did not go unpunished. the man who drew curry asked to leave game, which is the perfect job to maintain the safety of NBA superstars.

It’s not exactly clear what was going through that fan’s mind, because doing something like this would never go unnoticed and he would not be punished. They paid good money to see the Warriors take on the Celtics, but that doesn’t give them the right to do whatever they want.

The Warriors miss Stephen Curry a lot

Curry is the engine that powers the Warriors’ offense, and over the last 19 games, everything has been rough for Golden State. With Curry out, their net rating has dropped to almost minus-four, and it has led to their decline in the West standings.

What the Dubs are doing amid Curry’s injury is admirable, as many have tried to get Golden State a few wins here and there. But without Curry, the Warriors could reach a point of no comeback, which would be a sad way to go out for this team.

The Golden State Warriors have “cautious optimism” that Stephen Curry will return before the end of March as the team continues to advance into a crucial stretch of the regular season.

Golden State (33-35) is set to face the Boston Celtics (45-23) on Wednesday at TD Garden, with tipoff scheduled for 4:00 pm PT on ESPN. Before the matchup, Curry was seen taking shots during pregame warmups, indicating progress in his recovery.

ClutchPoints’ Kenzo Fukuda captured Curry’s on-court activity on X, formerly known as Twitter, while ESPN’s Shams Charania provided more details during an appearance on NBA Today.

“There is cautious optimism that Stephen Curry will be back in the lineup sometime by the end of the month. And then I’m told that on Tuesday afternoon in Boston he had a vigorous workout on the court, running, cutting, moving, starting to make some light contact like the Stephen Curry we know again.”

– ClutchPoints (@ClutchPoints) 18 March 2026

Charania said:

“The most important thing is that he’s not experiencing the inflammation that he had the last several weeks or a month ago when he needed to get PRP injections because of knee problems, from my understanding, so, now it’s about him maintaining this conditioning, getting as much comfort in the knee as possible before he’s able to get the call to get back on the court.”

Stephen Curry’s potential return looms as the Warriors enter a crucial March schedule

Curry has been sidelined with a knee problem that required PRP injections, limiting his availability during a significant portion of the schedule. His potential return comes at a crucial time, as the Warriors have slipped to ninth in the Western Conference standings despite a 125-117 win over the Washington Wizards on Monday night.

After Wednesday’s contest in Boston, Golden State has six games remaining in March, including a continuation of its current six-game road trip with three upcoming games away from home. The remainder of the schedule presents an opportunity for the Warriors to gain momentum as they strive for position in the play-in tournament.

Curry’s return would provide a significant boost to a Warriors team that has struggled with consistency in his absence. As the regular season enters its final stretch, Golden State remains focused on balancing Curry’s long-term health with the urgency of climbing the standings.

The Golden State Warriors have been without Stephen Curry since the All-Star break as he deals with a knee injury. It seems like Curry may be close to returning to the court as the Warriors try to make a late-season push, as he was seen taking shots in shootaround before the game against the Boston Celtics.

This is good news for the Warriors, but it also may not mean much. Curry is believed to be reevaluated soon, and there is a possibility he could return sooner rather than later.

Head coach Steve Kerr recently spoke about Curry’s injury, as many have asked why he doesn’t shut down the guard for the remainder of the season if he is injured.

“When people ask me about this year, and I’ve been asked this many times, why don’t you rest Steph all year? OK, he’s healthy, we’re competing, that’s what we do. And we want to give ourselves a chance and that’s the whole point. The beauty is in the pursuit, in the work. And when you fail, it’s hard to recover from that,” Kerr said on the Tom Tolbert Show.

The Warriors are still in the playoff race, and will likely have to make it out of the play-in tournament to earn a win. This is nothing new for them, as last year they found themselves in the same situation, and were able to earn the No. 7 seed. What made it even better was that they defeated the Houston Rockets in the first round of the playoffs.

There’s no doubt that the Warriors are battle-tested, but they need their star player to improve their chances of winning more games during the season.

The Golden State Warriors have gone through a tough stretch during this part of the season as injuries have plagued them. One significant injury is Stephen Curry, who has missed time since the All-Star break due to a knee problem.

Curry has suffered a few more injuries than usual recently, and some will think that is a sign that someone is close to retiring from the game. As far as the Warriors star is concerned, he isn’t even thinking about leaving anytime soon. He was recently asked when he’d know it was time to hang up the jersey.

“I think your body comes first,” Curry said, via The Athletic. “What it takes to prepare for a game is very different now than it was a decade ago… All the work is worth it because I get to go out there and jump at the highest level. The competition, the camaraderie, chasing something that matters – that’s still what drives me to keep going. And I don’t think it’s going to stop anytime soon.”

Steph Curry says he’s not planning to retire anytime soon, though his body will ultimately decide

There’s no doubt that Curry still loves the game of basketball, and he’s still giving it his all. Plus, the way he was playing before the injury should tell the whole story: Curry has a lot left in the tank.

Warriors fans should be excited that Curry doesn’t have retirement in mind, and basketball fans should feel the same. One of the best point guards to play the game, it will be a sad day when he decides to call it quits.

The only thing is that the Warriors need to get him back on the court as soon as possible to have a chance to make the playoffs. The Warriors are believed to be evaluated over the weekend, and he could make a return sometime next week.

It looks like injury problems will really plague the Golden State Warriors throughout the 2025-26 season. After veteran big man Al Horford was forced out of Friday night’s contest against the Minnesota Timberwolves due to calf tightness, the Warriors lost another veteran contributor to injury, with Seth Curry following in Horford’s footsteps.

According to a report from ClutchPoints NBA insider Brett Siegel, Curry will not return to action for the Warriors on Friday night after feeling soreness in his left adductor. It’s going to be even more difficult for the already shorthanded Warriors to pose much of a challenge against the Timberwolves as their players are dropping like flies.

Curry joins players like Horford, Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, Jimmy Butler and Moses Moody among the absent players for the Warriors. They’re falling apart in the West, and these injury problems aren’t helping one bit.

Curry may not be a major rotation piece for the Dubs, but the offense and shooting he provides could be useful, especially considering how depleted the Warriors roster was on Friday. Before fouling out, he had only one rebound and one assist, going scoreless in seven minutes of play after missing two of his attempts from the field.

Warriors’ depth continues to be tested

The good news is that the Warriors have depth at the guard positions, which should soften the blow of Curry’s injury. They have players like De’Anthony Melton, Brandin Podziemski, Pat Spencer, Will Richard, Gary Payton II and two-way player LJ Cryer who are capable of giving head coach Steve Kerr some quality minutes.

These shorthanded warriors aren’t giving up without a fight; At the time of writing, they had narrowed the Timberwolves’ lead to single digits, 109–102. Can they ride on the energy of the Chase Center crowd and cruise to an unexpected victory?

The Golden State Warriors have been falling rapidly in the Western Conference standings in recent weeks due to the long-term injury absence of Stephen Curry, who has not played since before the All-Star break due to a long-term knee injury. The losing streak continued on Tuesday with a home loss to the Chicago Bulls in overtime.

Recently, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr addressed Curry’s mental state as his absence continues.

“He’s disappointed,” Kerr told 95.7 The Game’s “Willard & Dibs” on Wednesday, according to Nick Avila of NBC Sports Bay Area. “He wants to be there for his guys. It’s obviously an injury that’s lasted much longer than anyone anticipated. He’s dying to be there, but there’s not a lot of it involved.

“We’re just following the leadership of the training staff and the advice of Rick Celebrini. We’re just trying to give him the best chance to come back and stay healthy and finish the season strong.”

The Warriors are currently 32-33 on the season, and if the season ended today they would be in the play-in tournament for the third consecutive year. While the Western Conference landscape makes it seem like falling below the play-in line would be nearly impossible at this point, it’s still not a possibility the Warriors would want to flirt with.

Curry was playing some elite basketball for Golden State before the injury, but the team has declined dramatically in his absence, which hasn’t been helped by the fact that Jimmy Butler is out for the year with a torn ACL, and trade acquisition Kristaps Porzingis has appeared in only three games so far for the Dubs as he deals with a lingering illness.

The Warriors next face off against the struggling Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday evening.

On Monday evening, the Golden State Warriors dropped back to .500 on the season with a tough loss to the Utah Jazz. The Warriors were playing without several key players, including point guard Stephen Curry, who had missed much of the All-Star break due to a knee problem.

Many are already looking at the 2025-26 Warriors season as a lost one, given Curry’s prolonged absence as well as the loss of Jimmy Butler for the season due to an ACL injury.

However, apparently, Curry hopes the Warriors’ fortunes change this offseason.

“…I think he knows that whether it’s Giannis, whether it’s LeBron James, there’s going to be somebody next summer that’s going to join him, join Jimmy, join Drummond, assuming he’s still there… Remember, this is the Warriors, they’ve got a brand, they can make a quick fix and add some talent,” NBA insider Mark Spears said, via 95.7 The Game, per NBC Sports Bay Area. Said.

However, Spears also said there is still value in giving some of the Warriors’ young players big minutes throughout the rest of this season, and regardless of how far Golden State goes in the playoffs.

“…But on the cheaper side, there are young guys and if you get them the good experience that they are getting now, it will help the franchise in the long run and save them some money for someone bigger in the process.”

The Warriors have spent the past several seasons trying to put together a young core and maximize the final years of Curry’s career, an effort that has had mixed results, with Jonathan Kuminga recently becoming a victim of Steve Kerr’s inability to do both tasks effectively.

Still, if Golden State were indeed able to add another star talent this offseason, things would get a lot more interesting in the Bay.

DeMar DeRozan may be in the final stages of his career and he’s playing hard for a bad Sacramento Kings team, but that shouldn’t take away from the fact that he’s been playing at a high level for a very long time.

He has been one of the most consistent scorers in NBA history, and on Thursday night, in a battle against the New Orleans Pelicans between the two worst teams in the West, DeRozan passed Stephen Curry for 19th on the NBA’s all-time scoring list, according to Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee.

DeRozan entered the night with 26,439 points, and in the opening round of the Kings’ clash against the Pelicans, he scored his ninth and 10th points of the night. He needed just eight to tie Curry, but he wasted no time in passing his fellow 2009 draftee on the NBA’s all-time scoring list.

This may be on hold for a while, as Curry is currently dealing with a knee injury and there is no specific timeline yet for when he will return.

Meanwhile, DeRozan is as healthy as ever, and even though the Kings are prioritizing the development of their youth for a high draft pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, he will still have plenty of opportunities to put up points in the final month of the 2025-26 season.

Will DeMar DeRozan have to fight for his future after his tenure with the Kings ends?

DeRozan is already 36 years old, and by the time the 2026-27 season starts, he will be 37 years old. He still has a year left on his Kings contract, meaning he could still be stuck in Sacramento next season.

The future Hall of Famer’s career is winding down, and he hasn’t had a chance to compete for a title since his days with the Toronto Raptors. He has to accept that, to have a chance at the Larry O’Brien Trophy, he will have to play the sixth man role (at best) on a winning team. Would he be willing to do so?

Golden State Warriors forward and podcaster Draymond Green chimed in on the conversation about shutting down Steph Curry for the remainder of the season so the Warriors can tank. On January 30, Curry suffered a right knee injury in a game against the red-hot Detroit Pistons; It did not appear to be serious, and as the All-Star break approached, the Warriors listed him day-to-day.

But Curry has been out for more than a month, as the Warriors said they are ready to reevaluate him soon. Now, the Warriors face a tough challenge without Curry and Jimmy Butler, who were sidelined midway through the season with ACL injuries. With the eighth-seeded Warriors having lost seven of their last 11 games, there is speculation that the season is over.

In an interview with Tim Kawakami tk showMike Dunleavy Jr. did not completely rule out Curry sitting out the remainder of the season, but said it would be surprising if that happened.

“It would be very, very surprising. But, you know, I’m not ruling anything out; I’m not a doctor, and things could go a certain way. So, I don’t want the headline to be that Steph could be done for the year because I’m not ruling it out, but just because he’s not playing right now, I just have to admit that I’m sure there’s a chance, but we don’t expect it.”

Following the conversation, Green discussed the possibility of the Warriors making this decision on his eponymous podcast.

“I’ve seen a lot of people say, ‘Hey man, they should just tank and not bring Steph back the rest of the year’ and all this stuff. One thing I will tell you is this: Shutting Steph down for the rest of the year is not something that’s just going to happen, except so he can play. I can also assure you, Joe Lacob is not going to tank. I saw Matt Ishbia say it, tanking is in my DNA. Never will. You get better and if we end up being bad and get a good draft pick, we get a good draft pick, but we’re definitely not going to tank Joe Lacob.”

Of note, senior NBA insider Brett Sigel of ClutchPoints reported that sources indicate Curry will receive around-the-clock treatment to put himself in position to compete in the playoffs. The Warriors are getting a break of sorts, with no games on Tuesday and Wednesday as they prepare for Thursday’s game against Kevin Durant and the Houston Rockets that will air nationally on Prime Video.

With the Warriors having interesting games against tough teams like the Thunder on Saturday, the Timberwolves on March 13 and the Knicks on March 15, a decision will certainly have to be made regarding Steph’s immediate playing future in order to keep the Warriors at least in the play-in picture.

Golden State Warriors general manager Mike Dunleavy Jr. said it would be surprising if star guard Stephen Curry was forced to miss the remainder of the season due to a knee injury.

The Warriors’ season continued with a 114–101 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday night, giving Golden State a 31–30 loss and its second consecutive loss. Curry has not played since January 30 with what the team calls “runner’s knee”, creating uncertainty over the timeline of his return.

In a report published Wednesday by Tim Kawakami of The San Francisco Standard, Dunleavy addressed the possibility of Curry being sidelined for the remainder of the season.

Dunleavy said, “It would be very surprising to me; very, very surprising.” “But I’m not ruling anything out. I’m not a doctor and things can happen a certain way. I don’t want the headline to be, ‘Steph could be done for the year’ because I’m not ruling it out. But just because he’s not playing right now, I just have to accept that yes, definitely, there’s a chance. But we don’t expect it.”

Stephen Curry continues rehab as Warriors monitor timeline of knee injury

Curry last appeared on January 30 in the Warriors’ 131–124 loss to the Detroit Pistons. The 37-year-old finished that game with 23 points, two assists, one rebound and one block in 25 minutes. He shot 7 of 16 from the field, 4 of 10 from 3-point range, and 5 of 5 from the free-throw line.

Despite missing time, Curry remains one of the league’s most productive scorers this season. Through 39 games, he has averaged 27.2 points, 4.8 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 1.1 steals per game, while shooting 46.8% from the field, 39.1% from beyond the arc, and 93.1% from the free-throw line. He has logged 31.3 minutes per contest.

The Warriors provided a medical update on Sunday that indicated Curry was continuing to progress.

“The re-evaluation concluded that Curry is making continued progress. He will be re-evaluated in 10 days,” the team said.

Additional reporting suggests the Warriors remain cautious about their franchise cornerstone as the regular season enters its final stretch.

ClutchPoints NBA insider Brett Siegel reported Tuesday:

“While the expectation was that Curry would return to the court after the All-Star break, the reality of his situation is that he was still dealing with right knee issues, which led to him taking more rest and the Warriors doing more imaging on his knee, which came back clean. Although he’s been doing little behind the scenes, Steph still has to go through full, comprehensive workouts on the court.”

Curry aims to return before playoffs amid Warriors’ cautious approach

Seagal continued:

It will be important for Steph to be available for the play-in tournament, as this will ensure he is 100 percent healthy for whoever they face in the first round playoff series.

That’s why there’s no rush to get him back, and that’s why sources say he’ll be back as soon as possible, but he’s unlikely to return until after this date, the beginning of the Warriors’ six-game road trip against the New York Knicks on Sunday, March 15.

To be completely honest, it might be in the Warriors and Curry’s best interest to put things off indefinitely until after this road trip, as seven of the Dubs’ final 10 games of the season will be in San Francisco. The Warriors have time on their hands as they aren’t moving anywhere in the play-in standings, which is why Steph’s return doesn’t really make sense right now.

As of right now, there have been no conversations about the Warriors ruling Curry out for the remainder of the season, and sources said, he specifically wants to return before the playoffs to try to build some momentum for this team.

For now, Golden State will attempt to stop its decline in the Western Conference standings without its star guard. The Warriors are currently in eighth place in the conference as they begin a three-game road trip starting Thursday against the Houston Rockets at 4:30 p.m. PT on Prime Video.

The Golden State Warriors suffered a 114-101 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday night, an area that is hurting the team as they remain without Stephen Curry and Jimmy Butler. While the Warriors wait for Curry’s injury to heal, the team is trying to somewhat keep the ship afloat, but they face another dilemma as it involves Draymond Green.

The non-Green minutes on Monday night were crucial for Los Angeles to come back strongly and take control of the game in the final 17 minutes of the game. Without Green’s defensive ability to keep players like Kawhi Leonard and others in check, the Clippers outscored Golden State 53-30 in a span of nearly 17 minutes.

However, the dilemma is Green’s minutes, as he turns 36 on Wednesday, his minutes are now subject to monitoring. He’s averaging 26.7 minutes per game as he played 31 minutes on Monday, marking the 11th time he’s scored more than 31 in 50 games this season.

Warriors’ Steve Kerr on Draymond Green’s minutes

The problem is compounded by the Warriors not having Curry, the team now has to figure out how to compensate in this area, although it goes without saying how important Green is.

“He’s still one of the great defenders in the league,” Golden State head coach Steve Kerr said, according to NBC Sports Bay Area. “And they set the tone in that first half, and we were able to keep the lead for most of the third quarter. But they took the lead late in the third quarter, and got it down to two going into the fourth.”

“But we had to take him out. He can’t play the whole game. And he played 31 minutes, which is a lot for him at this level,” Kerr added.

During that aforementioned stretch, the Warriors lost their 16-point lead and trailed by 17 points in the final frame. At any rate, Golden State looks to bounce back with its next game on Thursday night against the Houston Rockets.

Stephen Curry has received a big update on his injury recovery timeline as the Golden State Warriors wait for his return to the court this season.

Curry has been on the sidelines since his last on-court appearance on January 30 against the Detroit Pistons. He has been dealing with a knee injury that kept him sidelined throughout February, and also prevented him from participating in All-Star Weekend festivities in Los Angeles.

Despite this, Golden State had an important update on the veteran star guard’s timeline. The team believes he is making progress as he will get another evaluation after the next 10 days.

“The re-evaluation concluded that Curry is making continued progress. He will be re-evaluated in 10 days,” the announcement said.

Luka Doncic had a birthday he’ll never forget, and he ended it by sharing a laugh with the greatest shooter of all time. After the Los Angeles Lakers defeated the Golden State Warriors 129-101 on Saturday night, Doncic and Stephen Curry met with each other for a warm hug and some banter, even after a blowout.

The Slovenian superstar turned 27 on Friday, but the real party took place at the Chase Center. Doncic dominated right from the start and put up a massive line of 26 points, six rebounds and eight assists. He carved out the Warriors’ defense with surgical precision, shooting 9 of 17 from the field and connecting on four triples. It was the kind of performance that reminded everyone why the Lakers pushed all of their chips into the middle to get him.

While the Lakers took care of business, Gui Santos did his best to keep Golden State in the hunt. The Brazilian finished 6 of 12 from the field with 14 points and two assists. The Warriors had no answer to the Lakers’ size and transition game, as Los Angeles outscored them in fast-break points.

This win is a big momentum boost for a Lakers team that has faced a lot of criticism recently. LeBron James anchored the interior with 22 points and nine assists, while Austin Reaves scored 18 points to provide the needed scoring balance.

For the Lakers, seeing their franchise cornerstone share a light-hearted moment with a legend like Curry signals a changing of the guard in the Western Conference. If Doncic continues to play at this MVP level, Los Angeles could be the “contender” everyone expected.

Things aren’t looking great for the Golden State Warriors, especially after a discouraging 129-101 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers at home. The team has been calling time on its star players Stephen Curry and Kristaps Porzingis as they recover from their respective injuries/illnesses, and while they have picked up some impressive wins despite being without their best player, they are not going to advance anywhere in the postseason without Curry’s services.

At this point, the Warriors are a shell of the powerhouse they used to be. Nostalgia can cloud one’s perception of reality, however, as many Dubs fans know that their time as a competitive team under Curry is coming to an end.

But one should never forget how incredibly fun it was to watch the Curry-led Warriors in their heyday, even though it’s been almost a decade since they sealed a historic 73-win campaign.

Curry is at least doing his part to make sure his legacy lives on long after he hangs up the sneakers he recreated Hall of Fame commentator Mike Breen’s iconic “double bang” call of his game-winner from the hash line against the Oklahoma City Thunder in 2016.

Malika Andrews: “We have Mike Breen on the call. What’s your best Double Bang impression?”

Steph Curry: “Decide not to use it on your way through town. Bang! Bang!” 😅

Stephen Curry, the Warriors are on their last legs

Curry and the Warriors, during their prime, were so unstoppable. Defenses at the time hadn’t yet figured out how to maximize the mathematical advantage of the three-point shot, but there Curry was exposing opposing defenses like it was nobody’s business.

The Dubs won four rings with Curry as the star of the show, and the addition of Kevin Durant shouldn’t diminish Curry and the Warriors’ winning legacy. However, all good things come to an end, and after Jimmy Butler’s injury, the Warriors may be watching the last few good years of Curry’s NBA career come to an end.

Golden State Warriors legend Stephen Curry is the latest NBA star to hit free agency, but the four-time champion and unanimous MVP isn’t moving away from the Bay Area. Over the past few weeks, serious drama has emerged between Curry and longtime sponsor Under Armor as Curry’s contract expires. Following this, Curry was seen rocking several sneaker brands both on the court and in the tunnel, narrowing his final choice down to three brands.

Check out our sneakers news for more upcoming releases and breaking content!

Steph Curry first signed to Under Armor in 2013, becoming the face of their basketball line and one of the first big-name athletes to join. The two sides released eight standalone, name-bearing models until the creation of the subset Curry brand in 2020. With Stephen Curry serving as president, he managed to sign other NBA talents such as the Spurs’ De’Aaron Fox and the Heat’s Davion Mitchell.

During contract negotiations and initial consideration that the Curry brand would move away from Under Armour, Under Armor displaced all Curry brand social media followers on their main Under Armor page. The move has caused a stir throughout the sneaker community as Curry continues to rock other brands during basketball activities. Fans have also taken notice and come to the defense of their favorite NBA star.

Where will Stephen Curry sign next?

under armor

While there may be rifts between the two sides, it’s hard to distance yourself from a partnership that has lasted nearly Curry’s entire career. In sneaker terms, Curry leaving Under Armor would be the equivalent of leaving the Warriors, which fans don’t even want to think about at this point. Keeping all of its assets organized and within Under Armor could help promote the Curry brand even more in the years to come.

Nike

There’s no doubt that most athletes would jump at the idea of ​​joining the biggest sports brand in the world. Nike has a long history with the best of the game like LeBron James, Kevin Durant and Michael Jordan, so it would make sense to make Curry its fourth Lifetime Athlete. Additionally, Curry has a close relationship with WNBA star Sabrina Ionescu, who is making history with her current Nike Sabrina signature sneaker line.

However, during their 2013 pitch to originally sign Curry, Nike made a huge mistake by mispronouncing “Stephen” and failing to prioritize him as a top athlete. Since Curry has been rocking a number of Nike sneakers before and during recent NBA games, there may be a chance he’s ready to make a mistake and bring the Curry brand to unimaginable heights.

The final brand that Soul Retriever originally reported made Curry’s final cut is Chinese sportswear brand ANTA. Curry has been seen endorsing recent ANTA sneakers during games thanks to his performance. However, Curry’s own “splash brother” Klay Thompson has been signed to ANTA since 2014 after leaving Nike, so he may be in Curry’s ear about the budding brand.

Additionally, Mavs’ Kyrie Irving serves as the Chief Creative Officer for ANTA and recently opened their first flagship location in the United States. Speaking with Sports Illustrated, Curry admitted that he respects emerging brands as he did when he joined Under Armor 13 years ago.

Curry is expected to make his decision in the coming weeks, with the NBA offseason likely being the latest deadline for an announcement. Remaining at Under Armor is the least likely outcome at this point and we’re all anxiously waiting to see where the Curry brand establishes its new roots.

金州勇士队的传奇人物斯蒂芬·库里是最新一位成为自由球员的 NBA 球星，但这位四届总冠军和一致 MVP 并没有离开湾区。在过去的几周里，随着库里的合同到期，库里和长期赞助商 Under Armour 之间发生了严重的戏剧性事件。随后，人们看到库里在球场上和球员通道里都在尝试多个运动鞋品牌，最终将他的选择范围缩小到三个品牌。

查看我们的运动鞋新闻，了解更多即将发布的产品和重大内容！

斯蒂芬·库里 (Steph Curry) 于 2013 年首次签约 Under Armour，成为其篮球系列的代言人和首批加入的大牌运动员之一。双方发布了 8 个独立的同名模型，直到 2020 年创建库里品牌子集。在斯蒂芬·库里担任总裁期间，他成功签下了马刺队的德亚伦·福克斯和热火队的达维恩·米切尔等其他 NBA 天才。

在合同谈判期间，最初认为库里品牌将离开 Under Armour，Under Armour 将所有库里品牌社交媒体关注者转移到他们的 Under Armour 主页面。随着库里在篮球活动中继续震撼其他品牌，此举在整个运动鞋界引起了轰动。球迷们也注意到了这一点，并开始为他们最喜爱的 NBA 球星辩护。

史蒂芬·库里接下来会签约哪里？

安德玛

尽管双方之间可能存在裂痕，但很难放弃这种几乎与库里整个职业生涯一样长的合作关系。用球鞋术语来说，库里离开Under Armour就相当于他离开勇士队，这是球迷们现在根本不想考虑的事情。保持他的所有资产在 Under Armour 内井然有序，可以帮助在未来几年进一步推广库里品牌。

耐克

毫无疑问，大多数运动员都会欣然接受加入世界上最大的运动品牌的想法。耐克拥有悠久的历史，拥有勒布朗·詹姆斯、凯文·杜兰特和迈克尔·乔丹等有史以来最优秀的篮球运动员，因此让库里成为他们的第四位终身运动员是有道理的。此外，库里与 WNBA 球星萨布丽娜·伊内斯库 (Sabrina Ionescu) 关系密切，后者正在凭借她目前的 Nike Sabrina 签名运动鞋系列创造历史。

然而，在 2013 年最初签下库里的过程中，耐克犯了一个巨大的错误，错误地发音了“斯蒂芬”，并且未能将他列为顶级运动员。由于库里在最近的 NBA 比赛之前和比赛期间一直穿着多款 Nike 运动鞋，因此他有可能愿意忘记错误，并将库里品牌带到难以想象的高度。

安踏

据《Sole Retreiver》最初报道，库里最终选择的最后一个品牌是中国运动服装品牌安踏。由于安踏鞋款的出色表现，库里在比赛中备受青睐。然而，库里自己的“水花兄弟”克莱·汤普森自2014年离开耐克后就签约安踏，因此他可以在库里耳边谈论这个新兴品牌。

此外，小牛队的凯里·欧文担任安踏的首席创意官，他们最近刚刚在美国开设了第一家旗舰店。在接受《体育画报》采访时，库里承认他尊重新兴品牌，就像 13 年前加入 Under Armour 时一样。

库里预计将在未来几周内做出决定，NBA 休赛期可能是宣布这一决定的最新时间范围。目前看来，留在 Under Armour 是最不可能的结果，我们都在焦急地等待着 Curry Brand 在何处扎根。

Kendrick Perkins made a bold move on what the Golden State Warriors should do with Stephen Curry for the rest of the 2025-26 NBA season.

Curry is halfway through the 17th season of his remarkable career. Having won four titles in that span, Curry is expected to compete for a fifth ring as he moves into the latter stages of his time in the league.

Golden State has struggled to reach the top of the mountain since their last title in 2022. Even though the franchise has taken steps to keep the roster in the playoff race this season, former player and current NBA analyst Kendrick Perkins has made a pointed request to the organization regarding Curry’s availability this season.

“Shut up Steph. Let those guys play it out. See if guys fit in. Right now I would let the rest of the Warriors team outside of Steph play this season and audition to see if they want to be here. How do you want to be here? By performing at a high level,” Perkins said at the 12:21 mark of the Road Trippin’ Podcast.

“This offseason is probably one of the most important offseasons this franchise has had since Steph has been a part of the franchise. Because he needs to go out. Mike Dunleavy has to do his job and make sure he goes and gets the pieces so that Steph has a legitimate shot to compete for an NBA title next year.”

Stephen Curry, what’s next for the Warriors

Stephen Curry still has plenty of potential to do big in his career. The Warriors need to make the most of his remaining years before making this a career.

Curry continues to excel as Golden State’s top star in year 17. Across 39 games, he averaged 27.2 points, 4.8 assists and 3.5 rebounds per game.

Golden State has a 30–27 record on the season, finishing in eighth place in the Western Conference standings. They are above the Los Angeles Clippers and Portland Trail Blazers, while trailing the Phoenix Suns and Los Angeles Lakers.

After an upset win over the Denver Nuggets on Sunday, the Warriors will be eager for their next matchup. They are on the road when they face the New Orleans Pelicans on February 24th at 8 PM ET.

The Golden State Warriors are entering the most important phase of their season, but they will have to do it without their North Star. Stephen Curry recently met with the media to provide the latest on the persistent right knee injury that has kept him sidelined since late January, and while the news isn’t “bad,” it’s certainly not what fans wanted to hear.

“It’s not going the way I wanted it to,” Curry admitted via NBC Sports Authentic. The two-time MVP has been battling patellofemoral pain syndrome, commonly known as “runner’s knee.” While a second MRI on Wednesday night confirmed that there was no structural damage, the lingering pain and swelling has refused to subside. Curry said that although he is “moving in the right direction,” the priority is to stay healthy for the postseason rather than getting back in time for a February matchup.

Steph Curry shares the latest update on his knee injury and recovery:

“Feels good. I mean, it’s not going the way I wanted it to, but I think we’re on the right track to try to get back there as quickly as possible. The goal is to stay healthy come playoff time and… pic.twitter.com/LpXdWwryol

The timing couldn’t be worse for Golden State. The team is already missing Jimmy Butler, who is out for the season after ACL surgery. This latest delay is also a big personal sting for Curry: By missing his 18th game of the season against the Boston Celtics on Thursday, he becomes officially ineligible for All-NBA and MVP honors under the league’s 65-game rule.

On the court, the shorthanded Warriors have been bad but inconsistent. They recently pulled off a stunning 101-97 comeback win against the Phoenix Suns with the help of a career-high 20 points from Pat Spencer and 18 points from Gui Santos. However, a lack of late-game shot creation was evident as they relied on a 25-7 closing run to escape. D’Anthony Melton scored 17 points, but the offense clearly lacked the “gravity” provided by Curry.

The Warriors, currently 29-27 and in eighth place in the West, will reevaluate Curry in 10 days. For now, “Dub Nation” faithful will have to hold their breath and hope the supporting cast can keep the ship afloat until No. 30 is cleared for takeoff.

The Golden State Warriors fell to 29-27 after a 121-110 loss to the Boston Celtics on Thursday night, and former NBA center Kendrick Perkins believes the loss underscores a bigger reality: The championship window may be closed with Stephen Curry out.

Perkins shared his stance during Friday’s broadcast of First Take, arguing that Golden State’s inability to make a major roster upgrade has effectively ended its title aspirations.

“Steph Curry actually had a chance to win another championship in Golden State, those days are over. His only hope was to be aggressive and try to get Giannis Antetokounmpo and from my understanding the Bucks didn’t want any part of what they were trying to offer. Because I heard they were trying to include Draymond Green in the deal, that probably ruined the whole deal. Milwaukee probably said we were too good for that kind of dollar.” Are.”

Perkins continued to question the team’s current roster construction and future flexibility.

“So when you think about where they are and what would be available on the market for them – we don’t know about Jimmy Butler and how old he would be for us after his ACL injury. Draymond Green is accomplished when it comes to really being a guy that can give you real production, especially with the dollars he’s making. He’s not delivering… It’s a shame because Steph Curry is playing at an all-time high level.”

Kendrick Perkins links Warriors’ title concerns to injuries, West competition

Perkins later emphasized the competitive landscape within the Western Conference.

“What friends? [are] What’s going to be free is that you can pair up with Steph who is really going to move the needle? Because I say this: SGA, he’s not going anywhere, Anthony Edwards is not going anywhere, Wembley, Jokic, all these guys, Luka, are still in the Western Conference. So, not being able to go get Giannis and see the production around him right now, the pieces he’s got are dead birds in the tall grass. Those days of Steph winning championships in Golden State are over.”

Questions over Golden State’s roster have intensified following Jimmy Butler III’s torn ACL injury last month, an injury that has clouded the team’s short-term outlook. Butler was viewed internally as a key veteran capable of providing postseason experience and a two-way impact upon his return the following season.

The 37-year-old Curry has continued to produce at a high level despite the team’s uneven results. He averaged 27.2 points, 4.8 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 1.1 steals per game, while shooting 46.8% from the field and 39.1% from three in 39 appearances. However, Curry has been sidelined since January 30 after suffering a right knee injury during a 131–124 loss to the Detroit Pistons. The Warriors announced he would be reevaluated in 10 days.

At the trade deadline, Golden State made a notable move by acquiring Kristaps Porzingis from the Atlanta Hawks in exchange for Jonathan Kuminga and Buddy Hield, indicating a desire to rearrange the roster. Additionally, the Warriors remain in eighth place in the Western Conference standings.

Golden State concludes its four-game homestand Sunday afternoon against the Denver Nuggets (35-21) at 12:30 p.m. PT on ABC. Whether Perkins’ announcement proves premature or prophetic will depend on how the rebuilt roster responds once Curry returns and the postseason picture becomes clearer.

SAN FRANCISCO – The Golden State Warriors got a mixed injury update ahead of their first game since the All-Star break against the Boston Celtics.

Stephen Curry will miss his sixth consecutive game due to patellofemoral pain syndrome, also known as runner’s knee. The Warriors hoped the All-Star break would give Curry enough time to recover from the swelling associated with this type of injury. But it appears Curry will need more time to recover, as he was unable to participate in the team’s scrimmage today.

“[Curry] Will be evaluated by our training staff tonight,” Kerr said. “But he wasn’t where he needed to be going through the scrimmage. “And so it’s unfortunate, but we’ll have an update on that tomorrow after we spend our time with the training staff tonight.”

On the bright side of things, the Warriors made Kristaps Porzingis questionable for their matchup with the Celtics. After a strong week of rehab and increasing his workload, Porzingis was able to fully acclimate with the team today, which was one of the final hurdles they had to clear before deciding whether to clear him to play. After practice, Porzingis told reporters he was feeling good ahead of his potential return.

“Feels great,” Porzingis said of his first official scrimmage with the Warriors. “I feel good on the court. I worked out a lot before the All-Star break and had a few days off, but I stayed active. Didn’t want to take some time off because I’ve barely played this season. I want to go out there, feel good, and start building on top of that and finish the year really strong.”

Porzingis was excited to be playing on Draymond Green’s team, a pairing he and the Warriors are very excited about. Porzingis said he “loved” working with Green and now understands why he is so important to Golden State.

However, this is a pair that may have to wait. Kerr did not confirm whether Porzingis would actually be available for the Celtics game. But all signs seem encouraging, especially after Porzingis gave a cheeky answer when asked if he intends to make his Warriors debut tomorrow.

“I don’t know how much I can say,” Porzingis said with a smile as he looked to the Warriors’ PR team for an idea of ​​what he could say. “But feeling good and ready to go.”

Warriors plan for Kristaps Porzingis when he returns

As with Porzingis, Kerr doesn’t have an exact vision for his minutes restriction, but estimates around the 15-minute limit. As a result, Kerr is expected to play them in short bursts as he continues to work on his recovery from injury. Porzingis shared that although he didn’t initially plan on having the kind of short burst minutes he liked being rotated in, he has adjusted to that style of minutes.

“I hated playing short spurts,” Porzingis said. “Especially coming back from something because you’re there for a short period of time, it’s almost hard to get into a rhythm. You don’t want to go in and chuck the first shot. But sometimes I do that now. So I’m coming in, you know, just having my opportunities. Gotta take them and get into a rhythm that way.”

With Porzingis, the Warriors are especially excited about what he will bring to their offense. With Butler out for the season and Curry out for the last several weeks with an injury, they will look to Porzingis to give them a new dimension.

His old Celtics teammate, now Warriors teammate, Al Horford said, “With his ability to score the ball offensively I think he’ll be able to really help us.” Despite familiarity with each other’s games, Porzingis’ role in Boston was more of a defensive enforcer rather than an offensive initiator. With warriors, they will demand more later.

“He’ll probably have more opportunities on the offensive end, especially obviously with us missing Jimmy and everything else, so I think it’s a great opportunity for him to step up offensively and have a bigger role.”

Despite this, Porzingis is slowly making his comeback as he looks to become the Dubs’ X-factor after the All-Star break.

“Again, don’t have any crazy expectations of yourself. Just one day at a time. Take the short minutes I’ll have. Build up slowly, and I’ll be fine.”

As Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry prepares for the rest of the season, the basketball world is always wondering when he will retire. As rumors swirl about the Warriors and Curry’s retirement, Starr has debunked some of those conversations.

In an interview with People magazine, Curry will be asked about retirement, in which the point guard is part of the film and entertainment world, having recently produced a few features. However, Curry would say that his retirement is not happening “anytime in the near future.”

“Whenever the time comes to close it down, it will announce itself, which I don’t think will be anytime soon,” Curry said, as he is in his 17th season with Golden State. “I’m not really putting too much pressure on him.”

At 37 years old, Curry is still showing how elite he is as he is averaging 27.2 points. 4.8 assists, and 3.5 rebounds per game, while shooting 46.8 percent from the field and 39.1 percent from beyond the arc.

“Thinking about the end robs you of the present,” explains Curry. “I’m enjoying the journey of competing and all the work that goes into it. Hopefully it will take me far.”

Warriors’ Stephen Curry talks more about his career

While Curry will represent the Warriors with the three-point contest at next season’s All-Star weekend, he doesn’t seem ready to call it quits any time soon. In fact, Curry is constantly making history and reaching milestones, even playing a key role in leading Team USA to a gold medal in 2024.

“It’s an honor to be the oldest player to do all these great things,” Curry said. “To redefine what greatness looks like in this age.”

Curry added, “So I wear all those things like badges of honor, because I know how much work it takes to play the game that I love.”

At any rate, Curry is looking to help Golden State currently as the team is 29-26, leaving them in eighth place in the Western Conference as the first game coming off the All-Star break is on Thursday against the Boston Celtics.

At the 2024 Paris Olympics, Stephen Curry went viral with his now-famous “Night Night” celebration. Fast forward to 2026 at Milan-Cortina, and Italian speed skaters are following suit.

On Tuesday, the trio of Davide Ghiotto, Michele Malfatti and Andrea Giovannini scored an upset victory over Americans Casey Dawson, Emery Lehman and Ethan Sepura, according to NBC Sports. They won the men’s team pursuit in 3 minutes, 39.20 seconds. This was 4.5 seconds better than the Americans.

After crossing the finish line, they joined in a “Night of the Night” celebration to troll the American team.

The Italian trio not only won the gold medal, but did so in front of their hometown crowd. Furthermore, they defeated the American team that had previously set the world record time.

“Night Night” festival started in 2022. At the time, Curry and the Warriors were playing against the Denver Nuggets in the NBA playoffs. In Game 3 of the first round, the Warriors took the lead in the fourth quarter as Curry came off the bench after suffering an injury.

After scoring a layup over Nikola Jokic, Curry celebrated “Night of the Night”.

From there, it took on a life of its own, especially after the Paris Olympics. Warriors coach Steve Kerr said the moment was one of the greatest moments in basketball history. Additionally, Kerr ended her speech at the 2024 Democratic National Convention in Chicago with the sentiment “night’s the night.”

Additionally, Buffalo Bills running back James Cook celebrated in the same fashion during the first half of the Bills’ game against the Cleveland Browns on December 21.

On Sunday evening, the NBA All-Star Game took place from the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles, home of the Clippers. Although he was voted in as the starter, Golden State Warriors star point guard Stephen Curry was unable to participate in the festivities due to his recovery from a knee injury, although that didn’t stop him from hitting a spectacular trick shot before the game started.

Curry is approaching the age of 38, but is one of the best players in the NBA today, and recently, basketball legend Shaquille O’Neal had some high praise for the future Hall of Famer.

In a segment done with overtime, O’Neal was given photos of several NBA legends and asked to speak about when he saw a better player than Curry. Despite seeing pictures of several all-time greats, O’Neal did not speak during the entire segment, including none other than himself.

Finally, the big man ended it by saying, “Steph is the GOAT,” according to Overtime on Instagram.

O’Neal has long been known as one of Curry’s most vocal supporters across the NBA media landscape, a stark contrast to his frequent criticisms of big men in the league today.

In a vacuum, it makes sense that O’Neal would be impressed by Curry’s ability to shoot the ball from long range, given his struggles to hit shots from outside the paint, and one also has to appreciate the longevity of Curry, who is playing at a level somewhat equivalent to his prime as he approaches 20 years in the NBA.

Meanwhile, the Warriors shook things up a bit at the recent NBA trade deadline by trading for Atlanta Hawks big man Kristaps Porzingis, but it remains to be seen if that will be enough to propel them out of the West into contender status.

The Warriors next play against the Boston Celtics on Thursday.

On Saturday evening, the NBA hosted some of its All-Star weekend activities from the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles, home of the Clippers. Among them was the Three-Point Contest, which was won by the Portland Trail Blazers’ star point guard Damian Lillard, who defeated Devin Booker and Kon Knueppel in the final round of the contest.

It was the third career Three-Point Contest win for Lillard, who is currently sidelined with an Achilles injury but still wanted to participate in the event, and now, the former All-Star is previewing what the competition could look like in the 2027 season.

“Me, you, Klay, Bucs, and 4 more real shooters,” Lillard wrote in a message to Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry, which he posted on social media (via Lillard’s account on Instagram).

Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson have had some coveted three-point contest battles with Lillard over the years, and Devin Booker has also added his name to that discussion in recent seasons, winning a three-point battle and nearly winning another on Saturday evening before he fouled out down the stretch during the final period.

Meanwhile, the Blazers and their fans will be hoping that Lillard can continue his excellent level of performance on the court when he returns to action next year. Lillard re-joined the Portland franchise last offseason after being waived by the Milwaukee Bucks, and although he is still recovering from an Achilles injury suffered during last year’s playoffs, he is projected to provide some much-needed perimeter playmaking and shooting for a Blazers team that is surging in the Western Conference this year.

On Sunday, Blazers fans got a chance to see young star Deni Avdija play for the World Team in the All-Star Game, and Portland next faces off against the Denver Nuggets on Friday evening.

Let’s start the hype for the 2027 NBA Three-Point Contest. On Sunday, Golden State Warriors superstar point guard Stephen Curry confirmed that he will participate in the 2027 edition of the event.

After Damian Lillard became the third player in tournament history to win it three times when the Portland Trail Blazers lifted the trophy on Saturday, Curry said on the NBA Showtime broadcast that he would be there “100 percent.”

Additionally, the two-time NBA Most Valuable Player said he would try to get former Warriors teammate and half of the famous “Splash Brothers” Klay Thompson in there, as well as other players.

“I’ve already scheduled it. We’re gonna bring some people. I, Dame [Damian Lillard]I’m going to try to get Clay [Thompson]God [Devin Booker]”Curry said.

🚨BREAKING: Steph Curry says he’ll have a 3-point contest next year 🔥

– ClutchPoints (@clutchpoints) 15 February 2026

Like everyone else, Curry watched Lillard, now again with the Portland Trail Blazers, join 3-Point Shootout legends Larry Bird and Craig Hodges as the only players to win the event three times. Bird held the top spot in 1986, 1987, and 1988, while Hodges ruled it in 1990, 1991, and 1992. Lillard won the championship in 2023 and 2024 and finished on top again in 2026, despite the fact that he is still recovering from an Achilles injury.

As for Curry, he is a two-time three-point shootout king, having captured the crown in 2015 and 2021.

As the NBA’s all-time leader in 3-pointers, Curry probably felt obligated to attend the event in 2027 for a chance to join Lillard, Bird and Hodges in the extremely exclusive three-time winners club.

On Sunday evening, the NBA All-Star Game took place from the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California, home of the Los Angeles Clippers. Unfortunately, Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors was unable to attend this contest due to a knee injury that has caused him to miss the last few games for Golden State.

However, Curry was still in attendance in Los Angeles for the festivities, and during a pre-game interview with NBC, he launched a shot into the stands from the network’s set, drilling it, of course, very surprising Of fans in the field.

(Oh no, he didn’t on X, first on Twitter).

Steph Curry is crazy 🤯

Curry has long been known for his tendency to nail spectacular trick shots before games, often launching shots from the tunnel of both Oracle Arena and Chase Center before games, surprising fans in the process. In fact, fans arrive at Warriors games hours early just to see the spectacle.

While Curry will unfortunately miss the game due to a knee injury, he is still finding ways to entertain fans regardless.

Curry isn’t the only notable player to miss the game due to injury, as Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo and reigning league MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander of the Oklahoma City Thunder will also be sidelined for the festivities.

It will certainly be interesting to see whether the players who are available will be able to provide a higher level of effort than in previous years.

Seeing Stephen Curry wearing a pair of signature shoes usually involves his own brand, but the Golden State Warriors superstar decided to shake things up during NBA All-Star weekend in San Francisco.

Curry was seen wearing a “Gold Medal” edition of the AE 1 Low, which is the signature sneaker of Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards. It was a game-changer moment that left the normally confident Edwards feeling like a starstruck teenager on the sidelines.

Edwards has never been shy about his admiration for the greatest shooter of all time. He called Curry the GOAT, though he did it with a classic Edwards twist. “Goat Curry… He doesn’t know it but he’s actually me, his alternate ego is me.”

“Curry the Goat… He doesn’t know it but he’s actually me, his alter ego is me.”

Anthony Edwards is also a favorite of the players. He loves to joke with stars ranging from LeBron to KD and many more, a glimpse of which fans got to see during the Olympics.

In fact, the relationship between the two also dates back to the 2024 Paris Olympics, where they helped Team USA win the gold medal. During a game against the Warriors last year, Edwards was seen breaking league protocol by hiding his phone on the bench to take photos of Curry wearing his kicks.

Edwards admitted that he feels like a kid again, noting that he has grown up wearing Curry’s shoes since middle school and even attended Curry’s basketball camp before coming to the league.

Seeing the four-time champion lace up his signature line was a big moment for Edwards, especially since Curry is currently navigating a high-profile sneaker free agency.

While the actual All-Star Game featuring the new Team USA vs. Team World format is still hours away, the viral moment involving AE1 Lowes has already stolen the show. For Edwards, seeing a player he idolized wearing his gear solidified the “alter ego” story he likes to pursue.

Golden State Warriors All-Star Stephen Curry downplayed the recent fines imposed by the NBA on the Utah Jazz and Indiana Pacers for tanking during All-Star Media Day. After Warriors veteran Draymond Green called out Adam Silver for the NBA’s new All-Star Game format, Curry responded to the interesting topic of teams improving their chances of getting a good draft pick by keeping their best players on the bench.

Curry questions the seriousness of NBA tanking issue During his media availability on Saturday.

“Is it really that big of a problem? I’m asking. We think there’s obviously a lot of competition,” Curry said. “This is something I’m sure the NBA wants to discuss every year: Why does the play-in tournament exist. Things evolve, problems arise, and everyone wants to shine a light on all the negatives of the league. But let’s focus on the positives of how great the competition at the top is. The season-wise relevance of seeding and the playoff chase is still there.

“I know there’s a conversation going on about how many games we’re playing. That’s probably where I would focus more. Let’s not forget that the league is in a very good place in terms of attention, skill level, global reach, all of these things. Every year you’ll address issues. I don’t have those answers though,” Curry concluded.

Steph Curry was asked what he thinks the NBA should do to reduce tanking:

For Curry, the 82-game regular season should also be a topic of conversation. Perhaps shortening the game by 82 games or adding a week or two to the season would help given how challenging the NBA regular season can be, as Stephen Curry said.

Adam Silver addresses the tanking of NBA teams

Without any specific thoughts to disclose, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver confirmed that tanking is an issue in the league, which will be addressed in addition to the league’s recent fine. silver dealt with the topic During his availability at the media day.

“Every possible measure is now being discussed to stop this behavior,” Silver replied.
