He joined the team faster than expected.
U.S. sports media ESPN reported on Thursday (Korea time), "Stephen Curry has been approved to exercise on the court. He will participate in team training on the 16th ahead of the game against the Los Angeles Lakers on the 17th."
On the 8th, Curry injured his right ankle in a home game against the Chicago Bulls. With 3:56 left in the game, Curry received a pass and stepped under the basket when his right ankle turned.
Curry complained of great pain. Headed to the locker room with a limp. Didn't return until after the game. Golden State Warriors lost 122-125 to Chicago.
The test result was a sprained ankle. Fortunately, there was no bone or structural damage.
Golden State, without Curry, has a red light in the rankings battle. This season, Golden State won and lost one game in six games without Curry.
As such, Curry has an absolute influence within his team. Curry is overwhelmingly No. 1 in this category with 290 3-pointers this season.
He is also the only player in this season who has recorded an average of 20 points and three-point shooting success rate of 40 percent and a free throw success rate of more than 90 percent. The opponent's defense tactics will be completely different depending on whether Curry is present or not.
For Golden State, I hope Curry will return as soon as possible. The situation is urgent to look at the future. 토토사이트 순위
In particular, victory over the Lakers on Thursday is important. Golden State ranks 10th in the Western Conference and the Lakers are 9th. The two teams are only one game apart. If Curry plays, attention will also be drawn to his showdown with LeBron James.
