UPDATE: Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry will miss his third consecutive game due to an illness, just confirmed two hours before the game against the Indiana Pacers on November 5, 2023. This urgent situation has fans and analysts closely watching his recovery as the Warriors struggle with a 5-5 record following a promising start of 4-1.
The illness struck Curry after a recent road trip to Indianapolis and Milwaukee. He managed to play through symptoms in a home game against the Phoenix Suns on November 1, but admitted his energy was depleted by the second half. Since then, Curry has sat out during the Warriors’ losses to the Sacramento Kings and Denver Nuggets.
Originally deemed questionable for tonight’s match, Warriors coach Steve Kerr announced pregame that medical staff opted for caution, resulting in Curry’s absence. “It’s the best decision to ensure he recovers fully,” Kerr stated. Curry is scheduled for workouts on the practice court tonight and again on Monday morning. If he responds well, there is hope he could return on Tuesday night against Oklahoma City.
This news comes at a critical time as the Warriors have struggled without their star player, losing eight straight games in total without him, including playoffs. The Pacers enter tonight’s game reeling from a loss to Denver and missing key players, including Pascal Siakam, contributing to an overall record of just 1-8.
As the Warriors face a tired Pacers team, the pressure mounts for a turnaround. Fans are eager to see if Curry’s return can rejuvenate the Warriors, who are now on the brink of a challenging six-game road trip.
Stay tuned for updates on Curry’s condition and the Warriors’ performance as they navigate this crucial moment in the season.
