Is the Curry comeback coming soon?
Steph Curry is testing out his injured left leg and looks like he’s moving around well heading into Wednesday’s re-evaluation.
Curry was spotted after Monday’s practice doing individual work at the team facility, practicing one-legged shots off his left foot at one point.
The Warriors are now 4-4 in the eight games Curry has missed since he injured his leg while driving to the hoop against the Dallas Mavericks on Feb. 4. Andrew Wiggins has missed the past four contests due to a personal matter, while Draymond Green has missed the past two games with a knee injury, though he’s listed as probable for Tuesday’s game against Portland.
This is the second lengthy absence for Curry this season, as he also missed 11 games with a left shoulder injury in December and January. Though the Warriors essentially have been able to maintain their .500 record without Curry in the lineup this year, going 11-12 overall, they’d obviously love to get their superstar back as soon as possible.
“That’s huge. Our guys have kept us in the fight through Steph’s injuries," Kerr said Monday. "That hasn’t been easy for us over the years. Even our great teams struggled without Steph. Really proud of the group.”
We know Curry is out for Tuesday’s contest against the Trail Blazers and we haven’t heard of Steph joining 5-on-5 scrimmages in practice yet, but the earliest he could return after Wednesday’s re-evaluation would be on Thursday against the Los Angeles Clippers.
