"Golden State announced in a press release on Thursday evening that Steph Curry underwent an MRI on his right knee, and that results came back negative for any sort of structural damage. However, he will be out the next 10 days, which will mean he will not be available for the Warriors' next five games. The earliest Curry could return to the court is a home game against the Clippers on March 2."
"Curry will miss his sixth consecutive game on Thursday a showdown with Boston with patellofemoral pain syndrome in his right knee (runner's knee) despite sitting out all of the All-Star break, aside from one viral jumper with the NBC broadcast crew. Curry's knee soreness can only heal through rest, and he did not participate in Golden State's practice on Wednesday afternoon."
"Curry has played in 39 games, leading the Warriors in scoring with an average of 27.2 points per game. He also still leads the NBA in 3-pointers made per game (4.5) and free throw percentage (93%) and is clearly still one of the elite players in the league. However, because the NBA requires players to play in at least 65 games to be eligible for season honors such as All-NBA and MVP, 37-year-old Curry will not add another All-NBA accolade to his collection."
Steph Curry underwent an MRI on his right knee that showed no structural damage. He has patellofemoral pain syndrome in his right knee and will be sidelined for 10 days, missing at least five upcoming Warriors games and the next matchup versus Boston. Curry missed the All-Star break activities except for one viral jumper with the NBC broadcast crew and did not practice Wednesday because his soreness heals only with rest. He has played 39 games, averaging 27.2 points, leads the league in 3-pointers per game (4.5) and free-throw percentage (93%). At 37, he is now ineligible for All-NBA and MVP honors due to the NBA's 65-game requirement.
