Warriors guard Stephen Curry, seen in the first quarter Friday against the Detroit Pistons at Chase Center, didn’t finish the game after suffering a flareup of runner’s knee.

Overview

  • Golden State ruled Stephen Curry out against Philadelphia with right patellofemoral pain syndrome and labeled his status day-to-day.
  • The shorthanded Warriors fell 113-94 to the 76ers, attempting just two free throws and getting outscored 54-30 in the paint.
  • Philadelphia was without Joel Embiid (injury management) and Paul George (suspension), while rookie VJ Edgecombe led all scorers with 25 points.
  • Jonathan Kuminga missed a fifth straight game with a left-knee bone bruise as Golden State dropped to 27-24 ahead of Thursday’s trip to Phoenix.
  • Medical experts describe Curry’s condition as typically managed with rest and therapy but prone to recurrence, and multiple reports note his health is a factor in the team’s trade-deadline calculus.
