Overview
- During an open practice at Chase Center on Sunday, Curry slipped, grimaced, limped to the sideline and went to the locker room while reporters and fans watched.
- Coach Steve Kerr told reporters after practice that Curry said he hurt his right ankle and that the knee that sidelined him last season was not involved.
- The team has not issued a formal diagnosis or ruled on Curry's availability for the season opener on Oct. 21, and monitoring and any minute restrictions are ongoing.
- Curry, 38, missed 27 straight games last season with patellofemoral pain syndrome, prompting the Warriors to plan cautious load management for him this year.
- With key players already sidelined, a delayed decision on Curry would force lineup and rotation changes and could shape Golden State's early-season competitiveness.
