Stephen Curry Ruled Out with Right Abdominal Soreness After Early Exit vs. Rockets

The Warriors sent Curry for an MRI to determine whether the injury will keep him out during a five-game road trip.

Overview

  • Stephen Curry left the Rockets game early and was officially ruled out for the remainder of the contest with right abdominal soreness following a 3-pointer on Wednesday night.
  • Coach Steve Kerr said concern is high and confirmed Curry left the arena for an MRI, with the team providing no return timetable as medical results were pending.
  • Houston beat Golden State 115-108, snapping the Warriors’ eight-game winning streak while Curry played roughly six minutes and scored three points before exiting.
  • Golden State already listed multiple players out for the game — Jimmy Butler, Moses Moody, Gary Payton II, Kristaps Porziņģis and Brandon Williams — leaving the roster very thin and forcing heavier roles for rookies and backups.
  • The immediate practical effects include altered rotations and uncertain availability for Friday’s trip stop in San Antonio, and the MRI result will be the key signal for how long Curry might miss time.
