Stephen Curry's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's meeting with Los Angeles Lakers. He recently resumed practicing, which is a good sign. However, the 36-year-old, who missed the last three games because of a sprained ankle, likely has some hurdles to leap before being cleared to get back on the floor. With Golden State holding on to the last play-in spot, the team needs Curry back soon. But they won't rush him back before he's 100%. Nonetheless, if he remains sidelined versus the Lakers, Chris Paul, who is averaging 12.7 points, 7.4 assists, and 1.4 steals in 14 starts this season, would continue to handle most of the work at the 1.

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (ankle) is cleared to resume on-court activities. While he won't play on Wednesday night in Dallas, he is expected to practice with the team on Friday in Los Angeles. If all goes well, there's a chance the 35-year-old will be back in the lineup on Saturday versus the Lakers. Despite his age, Curry has remained a top fantasy option. He's averaged 26.9 points and shot 40.7% from deep in 59 games this season. The Warriors need him back soon, considering the team is fighting to remain in the play-in race. But until Curry returns, Chris Paul Should get most of the minutes at the one spot. Paul has averaged 13.0 points, 7.6 assists, and 1.5 steals in 13 starts during the 2023-24 campaign, giving him value for fantasy managers in all formats.

Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr doesn't expect guard Stephen Curry (ankle) to play in Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Curry's sprained right ankle that he sustained in last Thursday's loss to the Chicago Bulls is set to be re-evaluated on Tuesday, but fantasy managers should consider him doubtful at best against Dallas. Assuming he's soon officially ruled out for Wednesday, the 35-year-old two-time MVP's next chance to return comes during Saturday's showdown with the Los Angeles Lakers. Chris Paul has orchestrated Golden State's offense and enjoyed heightened fantasy value in Curry's stead, starting the past two contests and averaging 14.8 points, 7.3 assists, 5.3 rebounds, 2.0 steals, and 2.2 three-pointers over four appearances without Curry this year.

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (ankle) seemed to dodge a serious injury as he's only expected to miss "at least a game or few games." According to Shams Charania of The Athletic, there is optimism that his absence won't be lengthy. That's a sigh of relief for the Warriors and fantasy managers everywhere. Curry hasn't been supplying the season that most expected of him this year, but he's still been one of the most consistent players on the Warriors. In the meantime, Chris Paul should see a big boost in playing time while Jonathan Kuminga, Brandin Podziemski, and Andrew Wiggins will all take on some more opportunities as well.

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (ankle) was forced to exit their Thursday night game against the Chicago Bulls after seemingly spraining his ankle with 3:51 left in the fourth quarter. As he was driving to the hoop while being guarded by Alex Caruso, he planted and rolled his ankle in the paint. This was the first time the Warriors had a fully healthy roster since November after they got Andrew Wiggins back, but now it's unclear if Curry will need to miss some time. The official reports should come out soon after the team does some X-rays and an MRI, but if he does end up missing at least a game, Chris Paul should move into the starting five. Brandin Podziemski would also be an intriguing streaming option.
