LOS ANGELES — The biggest and most obvious question on the minds of Warriors fans is about Stephen Curry’s health.
Curry returned to the court for some light, non-contact individual work earlier this week, a small but promising step in his recovery process. A return-to-play timeline is still not set in stone, but we know he won’t play in the Warriors’ next four games., which should paint a better picture as to when he’ll be back in the fold.
Earlier this season, with Curry sidelined for a month with a shoulder injury, the Warriors strung together a season-high five-game win streak. Entering Thursday’s game against the Lakers, they are 9-11 without Curry this season. As of Thursday morning, the Warriors are ninth in the crowded Western Conference playoff race, only 2.5 games behind the fourth-place Clippers and a single game ahead of the Trail Blazers in 12th. Twenty-one of their final 24 games come against conference foes, meaning this is the time where separation should start to happen in the standings.spoke with reportersPayton’s timeline remains fluid, though he’s expected to miss more time than Curry. The hope is he’ll be back before the playoffs.
