Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry is scheduled to be re-evaluated for his left shoulder subluxation on Saturday, and the organization is hopeful he will be able to return next Friday as the team starts a six-game road trip in San Antonio.
“He’s working out on the court, and the two-week mark to re-evaluate him this weekend,” Warriors general manager Bob Myers said on Bay Area radio station 95.7. “There have been no setbacks, so (Friday) would be a hope. That’s what we would be shooting for, something in that range when he could be back. He’s been, not in contact, but out there doing all this stuff. He looks like the same guy. He’s got a sleeve on his shoulder and arm.”
Curry injured his shoulder on Dec. 14 against the Indiana Pacers when he bumped into Jalen Smith in the third quarter. Curry immediately grabbed his left shoulder and continued to hold it as he ran down the court. The Warriors subsequently called a timeout, and Curry was looked at by two trainers on the bench before heading back to the locker room.
The Warriors have gone 6-5 since Curry’s injury, including the Pacers game in which he was injured and Wednesday’s night 122-119 loss to the Pistons. And they haven’t just been without him.
Golden State’s roster has been depleted. In addition to Curry, Andrew Wiggins (right adductor strain, illness), Jonathan Kuminga (right foot sprain), JaMychal Green (right leg infection) and James Wiseman (left ankle sprain) have been sidelined.
Wiggins will be re-evaluated later this week while Kuminga, Green and Wiseman will be re-evaluated in one week, the team announced.
