Steph Curry's Status vs. Toronto Raptors Revealed
The Golden State Warriors have released their injury report for Friday night's game against the Toronto Raptors, and star point guard Steph Curry is not listed, meaning he is available to play. This is the second night of a back-to-back for the Warriors, following their win over the New York Knicks on Thursday night, but that isn't impacting Curry's availability.
It was reported by Anthony Slater of The Athletic that the Warriors had some plane troubles when trying to leave New York, which led to a very late arrival to their hotel in Toronto. This is already the second night of a back-to-back, and the Warriors will be on little sleep as well. Despite this, Curry is in the lineup, which gives the Warriors a chance every single game.
There has been some talk about potential fatigue for Curry, with his recent shooting slump being very uncharacteristic, but the Warriors star has pushed back against this idea, and has wanted to remain in the lineup each game. Bouncing back with a solid showing vs. the Knicks, Curry looked much more like himself in that win.
Understanding where the Warriors are in the standings, Curry knows that every single game is important. Trying to be out there every night for that reason, Curry has remained very durable for the Warriors, and will once again be in the lineup on Friday night against the Raptors in Toronto.
