Stephen Curry Sidelined for at Least 5 More Games Due to Knee Problem

Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry will be absent from at least five additional games as he recovers from a right knee condition. The team announced Sunday that Curry's knee injury will be reassessed after missing games through March 10.

Golden State Warriors announced Sunday that superstar Stephen Curry will be sidelined for at least five additional games while dealing with a right knee condition before medical staff reassess his status.

The point guard has been absent from action since January 30 and will definitely miss Monday’s matchup at home versus the Los Angeles Clippers due to “right patellofemoral pain syndrome,” commonly known as “runner’s knee.” This condition results from overuse and causes discomfort in the area surrounding the kneecap.

Beyond Monday’s Clippers matchup, Curry will be unavailable for Golden State’s upcoming road games against Houston, Oklahoma City, and Utah, plus their home contest versus Chicago scheduled for March 10. The earliest possible return date for the star player would be March 13 when the Warriors host the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Team officials report that while Curry is showing improvement in his recovery, he has not yet resumed on-court activities.

The Warriors currently hold a 31-29 record, placing them eighth in the Western Conference standings. Without their star player, the team has struggled to a 4-6 record in games played before and after the All-Star break during his absence. Most recently, the Los Angeles Lakers dominated Golden State in a 129-101 victory on Saturday.
