Warriors Play It Safe: Steph Curry Ruled Out Of NBA All-Star Game

Golden State are in no mood for frivolity.

Steph Curry will sit out the All-Star Game in Los Angeles as the Warriors opt for caution with the star guard’s lingering right knee issue.

Golden State coach Steve Kerr confirmed Monday that Curry will also miss Wednesday’s home game against San Antonio, ruling him out through the All-Star break.

That target date for Curry’s return is February 19, when the Warriors host Boston at Chase Center.

Curry, who turns 38 on March 14, has been dealing with patellofemoral pain syndrome in his right knee. He exited early from Golden State’s 131–124 loss to Detroit on January

30, with Kerr later revealing the issue had been bothering him for roughly a week. They are 5–9 without him, ever since.

The Warriors’ injury concerns don’t end there. Jimmy Butler, Curry’s backcourt partner, is also sidelined after undergoing surgery Monday to repair a torn ACL in his right knee, suffered against his former Miami team on January 19.

For the Warriors, the priority is simple: rest Curry now, hope to have him ready when the games start to matter again.
