Curry is not on the Golden State Warriors’ injury report.
On Thursday night, the Golden State Warriors will visit the Los Angeles Clippers, and superstar point guard Steph Curry is expected to participate. Curry will be missing several crucial players, like Andrew Wiggins, Chris Paul, and Gary Payton II, but he is more than capable of winning a game on his own.
Curry has been a Clippers slayer his whole career, averaging 25.5 points per game versus them and just under 30 points per game over the previous decade. Both the Warriors and the Clippers are in comparable situations right now, with aging players and teams that have underperformed to begin the season.
While Golden State boasts a dynastic three that has earned the team four titles, only Curry has been consistently outstanding and accessible this season. Only Paul George and Kawhi Leonard have been together for a lengthy amount of time with the Clippers, as Russell Westbrook arrived late last season and James Harden joined early this season.
With just a half-game separating LA and Golden State in the standings, this is a key early-season meeting with tiebreaker ramifications at the end of the season. The Warriors and Clippers will meet again in Los Angeles on Saturday afternoon, following up on their last meeting.
