Another unfortunate piece of the news for the Golden State Warriors, as superstar Steph Curry was forced to leave early in the first quarter after holding onto his right hip/oblique area. He would not return to the game due to what the team called ‘right abdominal soreness.’
The Warriors went on to lose to the Rockets, snapping their eight-game winning streak. Afterwards, Steve Kerr was asked about Curry’s status.
Here’s what he had to say:
Steph Curry left the arena in the second half for an MRI, per
Kerr. Curry told him it was a tweak in abdomen/side and something he hadn’t felt before. Said there was a high level of concern until they get test results back. https://t.co/SYwin7wY1R

Curry has suffered plenty of injuries before, to the point where if he knew what kind of injury and approximately how long he would be sidelined (if at all), he wouldn’t be wrong. Characterizing this as something he hadn’t felt before does raise the level of concern significantly.
It would be a shame if Curry misses significant time. Already without Jimmy Butler, Moses Moody, and Brandon Williams, the Warriors’ depth has taken a massive hit.
