""It's trending in the right direction," Curry said. "It's different than last year, but something that will heal." It is unclear when he will return to the lineup. Early last season, Curry dealt with tendinitis in both of his knees, forcing the Warriors to manage his minutes and rest him for a game. This time around, he is dealing with what the team is listing as patellofemoral pain syndrome, also known as "runner's knee," which typically consists of swelling and pain around the kneecap."
"The problem flared up two weeks ago during an individual workout. He missed one game in Minnesota, tried to play through it the next two and then exited a home loss to the Detroit Pistons in the third quarter. He limped to the locker room and has since been off to the side doing individual rehab work. The team continues to call him day-to-day, but he doesn't sound like someone preparing to return for Saturday night's ABC showcase game against the Los Angeles Lakers."
Steph Curry is rehabbing a right knee issue listed as patellofemoral pain syndrome (runner's knee), involving swelling and pain around the kneecap. The problem flared during an individual workout two weeks ago; he missed one game, attempted to play through it, then exited a home game after limping to the locker room. He has been doing individual rehab and the team is managing him on a day-to-day basis to avoid flare-ups from an early return. The Warriors won a comeback game without him, and the team remains cautious amid recent roster adversity.
