Due in large part to ongoing injury concerns affecting star players like Stephen Curry, the Warriors had their season record plummet to 22-23, putting them below .500.
It is really concerning that the ankle injury he got during the Warriors’ win over the Washington Wizards is still annoying him, though it is not very serious.
However, the Warriors star addressed the injury pain in the press conference following the match, but he just thought this pain was nothing but an excuse, which he didn’t want to make.
In the postgame, Stephen Curry said, “It sucks, but it’s not an excuse for anything. Got to play through it. I went 8-for-8 with it. It’s just something that has been lingering to the point that it gets hit every once in a while.”
Steph Curry’s knee tendinitis has improved, but his right thumb has been wrapped during games and he’s been seen shaking it in discomfort.
