After a dominant 41-point performance vs. the Sacramento Kings on Friday, Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry has been added to the injury report for Sunday night’s game vs. the Houston Rockets. The Warriors are listing Curry as questionable with left foot soreness, which comes as a surprise after he looked fantastic in Saturday’s win.
According to Anthony Slater of The Athletic, Curry was icing his foot after the win over Sacramento, so this was clearly something he felt after that game. While a questionable status certainly does not mean Curry will miss this game, it does mean his status is uncertain as of right now.
The Warriors are already dealing with some injury issues to start their season, as Draymond Green has yet to debut due to an ankle sprain. The expectation is that Green will make his return on Sunday, which would make it even more frustrating if the Warriors were to lose Curry the same game they get Green back. That said, even if Curry is forced to miss a game, this doesn’t seem like the type of injury that will keep him out for any significant stretch of games.
As of right now, Curry’s status is questionable, and it’s likely that he will go through shoot around and pregame warmups on Sunday before making a final call on his status.
