The Warriors will host both of their games against the Thunder. After a 6-2 start, Golden State is currently experiencing a four-game losing streak.

Curry suffered the injury during the Timberwolves’ Sunday defeat.

In his 15th NBA season, 35-year-old Curry is off to a fantastic start. He has averaged 30.7 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 3.9 assists per game while playing in all 11 Warriors games. His field goal percentage is 48.8%, and his 3-point percentage is 44.6% on 12.6 attempts per game.

A 6-5 Warriors team that is having offensive difficulties without its nine-time All-Star is severely harmed by the injury. This season, Curry is the only member of the Warriors to score more than 20 points in a single game. He has gone over that mark in all 11 of his games. In his absence, the Warriors will rely on Andrew Wiggins, Chris Paul, and Klay Thompson to step up their offense.
