Positive Update on Stephen Curry
Exciting News for Warriors Fans
Golden State Warriors fans can breathe a sigh of relief with the recent update from team captain Stephen Curry. After over a week of injury treatment, Curry has confirmed he is ready to return just in time for the opening game of the 2024-25 NBA season. The Warriors are set to kick off their campaign against the Portland Trail Blazers this Thursday.
Injury Update from Coach Steve Kerr
Head coach Steve Kerr shared that Curry has resumed practice and is gearing up for the season opener. During the recent NBA Preseason, Curry suffered a finger sprain that caused him significant discomfort. Initially, he taped his finger to continue practicing and playing, but as the pain persisted, he had to sit out several training sessions and missed the preseason game against the Los Angeles Lakers.
While the Warriors finished the preseason undefeated with a 6-0 record, fans remained concerned about Curry’s health ahead of the official season. Fortunately, Coach Kerr reported that Curry’s finger is healing well, allowing him to return to practice and prepare for the game against the Trail Blazers.
“Seeing Steph Curry back in practice and even participating in scrimmages with his teammates gives me a lot of reassurance,” said Coach Kerr. “The team still has some issues to work out before the regular season, so we’re focusing on scrimmages to improve. Having Stephen on the court will definitely benefit the team.”
Curry’s Preseason Stats
In the preseason, Curry’s performance was below his usual standards, averaging only 11 points per game. His shooting percentages were also concerning, with a field goal rate of 36.6% and only 28% from beyond the arc. These numbers are significantly lower than his averages last season, where he scored 26.4 points per game, with 45% shooting from the field and 40.8% from three-point range.
Despite the preseason struggles, no one should underestimate the “Chef” as the regular season approaches. Curry’s ability to perform at a high level when it matters most is well-documented, and fans are eager to see how he contributes starting Thursday.
The Upcoming Journey
The Warriors will begin the 2024-25 NBA season with two road games, starting against the Portland Trail Blazers at 9 p.m. on October 24, followed by the Utah Jazz at 8:30 p.m. on October 26. After these games, they will return home to host the LA Clippers on October 28, followed by back-to-back games against the New Orleans Pelicans on October 30 and 31.
With Stephen Curry back in action, the Golden State Warriors are ready for a strong start to the new season. Fans are eager to see how Curry’s presence will impact the team as they aim for another successful NBA campaign.
