The Golden State Warriors announced that an MRI confirmed an abdominal oblique tear for Stephen Curry. The guard exited Wednesday’s loss to the Houston Rockets with 6:25 remaining in the first quarter and did not return.
After the game, head coach Steve Kerr said Curry had “tweaked” something in his abdominal area. The Warriors will reassess Curry in two weeks, with a return date still to be determined.
Curry has started all 10 of his appearances this season, averaging 27.8 points, 3.9 assists and 3.7 rebounds. He is shooting 50 percent from the field and 45.7 percent from three.
His absence leaves Golden State looking for more production from its backcourt after a strong start to the season. Brandin Podziemski, De’Anthony Melton and Will Richard are among the guards who could take on larger roles while Curry is sidelined.
