After evaluation, there was no sign of major damages, but the player reportedly will miss multiple games. The Warriors lost against the San Antonio Spurs in Curry’s first absence.

Warriors fans were disappointed by the loss, as the 15th-seed Spurs were also missing their star Victor Wembanyama. But things changed right in the next game.

Warriors played against the Spurs again with Wembanyama this time in the team, and won 112-102 in a team effort. After the game, in the press conference Warriors head coach Steve Kerr was asked about the win without Curry.
