Golden State Warriors’ First Loss Hits Hard After Stephen Curry’s Injury

The Golden State Warriors suffered their first loss of the season on October 26, falling 112-104 to the Los Angeles Clippers. At their first home game of the season, the Warriors looked like they could win since Kawhi Leonard was missing from the Clippers’ roster. But it was difficult to take the loss, especially since star player Stephen Curry hurt his left ankle in the fourth quarter.

Stephen Curry, a key player in the Warriors’ early-season success, initially injured his ankle in the third quarter. However, he made a brief comeback in the fourth quarter before missing the rest of the game.

Curry limped off the court and needed help to reach the locker room. The injury is considered mild to moderate, but he will have an MRI to check how serious it is.

Before he left, Curry scored 18 points, made six assists, and grabbed four rebounds. Unfortunately, the Warriors couldn’t beat the Clippers, despite some strong performances from Andrew Wiggins, who led the Warriors with 29 points, shooting 11-of-15 from the field and making five out of eight three-point attempts.
