Curry got the starting nod for the first time since January and played 27 minutes. He didn’t contribute to the level that he’s capable of, but it was good to see him back in the starting unit. The Warriors have clinched the 10th seed in the West, so don’t expect Curry to suit up in the season finale. However, he should be at full strength for the play-in tournament next week.

Curry is out for Thursday’s game against the Lakers, and the expectation of many was that he’d miss one of the Warriors’ next two games. Kerr confirmed as much with his pregame comments on Thursday, saying that he expects Curry to play in Sacramento. There’s also hope that Kristaps Porziņǵis (illness) will play against the Kings.

Between Curry’s recent return and the Warriors being locked into the No. 10 seed in the West, it’s unsurprising that he won’t play in one of the team’s next two games. If Gui Santos can play, he’ll take on a prominent role within the Warriors’ offense. Pat Spencer and LJ Cryer should see their minutes increase as well.

While Curry played in Tuesday’s win over the Kings, Santos did not due to his lingering pelvic contusion. Malevy Leons filled in for the latter but was not productive enough to merit streaming in any active fantasy league. Thursday’s game is the first of two in as many nights for the Warriors, so Curry is likely to miss one of them for injury management reasons.

Curry continues to play on a minutes limit of about 25 minutes per game. The 28-year-old point guard isn’t playing 40 minutes, but he’s still having a big impact on the game. Curry had two four-point plays in the second half of the second quarter against the Kings on Tuesday. That helped the Warriors to a 66-53 halftime lead and eventually the win.

Curry is good to go after initially being probable for Tuesday’s game. The Warriors are once again restricting their star guard’s playing time, as Curry is expected to play more than 26 minutes.

Following an absence that spanned over two months, Curry returned to the lineup on Sunday. He scored 29 points in 26 minutes off the bench, and he’s expected to remain available against Sacramento. He could move back into the starting unit, but he will likely continue to have his minutes managed.

Appearing in a game for the first time in over two months, Curry was supposed to be restricted to 25 minutes on Sunday. He played 26, so there’s nothing to worry about there. And Curry’s impact was felt throughout his time on the court. In addition to shot-making, the elite shooter has a gravity few players in the history of the sport have possessed. Curry’s three-point attempt that would have won the game missed the mark as time expired, so he and the Warriors missed out on the storybook ending. However, simply having him on the court changes the equation for Golden State going into the postseason.

Sunday’s game will be Curry’s first since January 29. In addition to his minutes being limited (25 is the limit), the veteran guard will come off the bench and play in short bursts. This approach ensures that Gui Santos will remain in the starting lineup, preserving his fantasy value for the final game of Week 23.

Curry has missed 27 straight games, but he’ll be back in action to face Kevin Durant and the Rockets. Curry will likely face a minutes restriction as he ramps up for the Play-In Tournament. Fantasy managers still holding onto him can take a high-risk, high-reward approach to deploying him in lineups.

Curry went through a successful scrimmage on Tuesday, and he is now looking to return to the lineup against Houston after missing over two months. That will leave five games left in the regular season, though Curry would play in four at the most due to a back-to-back on April 9 and 10. The priority for the Warriors will likely be ramping him up to ensure he is at full strength for the play-in tournament.

Curry could return as Sunday to face the Rockets, but it’s unclear what kind of restrictions he’ll face. The Warriors end the season with four games against Pacific Division opponents in Week 24, including a Thursday-Friday back-to-back set. Golden State is locked into the Play-In Tournament, so the team won’t rush him back before he’s ready.

Sidelined since late January, Curry was expected to be incorporated into scrimmages earlier this week. Unfortunately, that did not happen as he continues to deal with lingering knee pain. Given the lack of scrimmaging, fantasy managers may not be able to get much value out of Curry in Week 23. When available, Gui Santos, Brandin Podziemski and De’Anthony Melton all have greater fantasy value due to Curry’s injury.

Curry, who has been out since late January, is progressing in his recovery from runner’s knee. He’ll be incorporated into practices in the coming days, with the team playing to re-evaluate Curry’s knee on Tuesday when the Warriors return home from their road trip. Gui Santos, Brandin Podziemski and De’Anthony Melton all have increased fantasy value while Curry is out.

On March 11, Curry was given a 10-day re-evaluation timeline. During his pregame availability on Wednesday, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said that an update on the guard’s progress will be provided on Saturday. Charania reported that there’s “cautious optimism” that Curry will be back by the end of the month, and Curry went through a rigorous on-court workout in Boston on Tuesday. The question is whether he’ll be back soon enough to affect fantasy basketball. For now, managers should continue to rely on Gui Santos, Brandin Podziemski and De’Anthony Melton for fantasy value.

Though Curry has returned to on-court work, he will be re-evaluated in March 21 before deciding when he will return to the lineup. He has already missed 15 games, with the Warriors going 5-10 during that stretch, and he will miss at least five more. Gui Santos will continue to start in his place, with extra minutes and shots to go around for everyone.

While Curry is making progress in his recovery from a right knee issue, described as “runner’s knee,” the Warriors guard said during an interview on Saturday that he has not yet begun on-court work. The reported timeline means that the door is still open for Curry to return to action before the fantasy playoffs conclude, so he should continue to be stashed in IL slots. Gui Santos, who recently earned a standard contract worth $15 million over three years, is worth rostering while Curry sits, as is De’Anthony Melton.

Curry is still dealing with a persistent knee injury, according to Charania. The 37-year-old point guard will miss the next 10 days, which covers the next five Warriors games. At that point, Curry will be re-evaluated by doctors. Gui Santos figures to continue starting for Golden State and is worth streaming in deeper leagues with Curry out.

Curry did not participate in Wednesday’s practice, as he did not “feel right,” according to Warriors head coach Steve Kerr. Gui Santos has played well since moving into the starting lineup, and he is worth streaming in deeper leagues while Curry remains out.

Before Saturday’s loss to the Lakers, Kerr said that his star guard was unlikely to play in Monday’s game against the Grizzlies. In addition to sitting out Monday’s contest, Curry will miss Wednesday’s matchup with the Spurs and the February 15 All-Star Game in Inglewood, California. Gui Santos has played well since moving into the starting lineup, and he’s worth streaming in deep leagues until Curry returns.

Saturday’s game against the Lakers is the third that Curry has missed with “runner’s knee,” and he’ll likely be out longer. In addition to saying that his star guard was doubtful for Monday’s game against the Grizzlies, Kerr said that the Warriors may hold Curry out through the All-Star break. If that were to happen, he would also miss Wednesday’s game against the Spurs. Gui Santos has played well recently, and he’s worthy of streaming consideration in deep leagues while Curry sits.

Curry has been dealing with “runner’s knee” for a few weeks. It’s unknown how much longer the star guard will be out, but at the very least, he will miss one more game. Gui Santos has been productive as a spot starter and is worth a look in deeper leagues while Curry sits.

Curry banged knees with a player during Friday’s loss to the Pistons, aggravating a case of “runner’s knee” that has lingered for a bit. Thursday’s game will be the second that he’s missed. Gui Santos played reasonably well as Curry’s replacement in the lineup for Tuesday’s loss to the 76ers, but Golden State’s offensive struggles in the 113-94 defeat will likely prompt other changes to the lineup.

Curry injured his knee during Friday’s loss to Detroit, and while the Warriors have downplayed the severity, it will keep him out in their first game since then, which is also four days later. De’Anthony Melton and Pat Spencer will take on larger roles, with one of them likely sliding into the starting unit. With Curry, Jimmy Butler (knee) and Jonathan Kuminga (knee) all out of the lineup, there will be plenty of usage to go around.

Curry exited Friday’s loss to the Pistons during the third quarter with a sore right knee. Following the game, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said that he didn’t believe the knee injury to be “anything major,” and Saturday’s MRI backed that up. The Warriors are off until Tuesday against the 76ers, so Curry will have a few more days to rest.

Curry left Friday’s game against the Pistons in the third quarter with right knee soreness and didn’t return, but his coach didn’t seem too concerned about it postgame. Kerr told reporters he doesn’t think the injury is anything major, though it’s been nagging the 37-year-old point guard for the past week. The Warriors will have a more official update on Curry’s status Saturday, but it seems more like an injury he’ll have to manage than something that could keep him sidelined for an extended period. The Warriors fortunately have a few days off before Tuesday’s game against the 76ers.

Curry checked out of the game in the third quarter Friday against the Pistons and headed straight to the locker room following a brief interaction with the team’s trainer. The Warriors quickly ruled him out for the rest of the game with right knee soreness. While the severity of the injury is unclear, the Warriors have a few days off before their next game Tuesday against the 76ers. With Jimmy Butler already done for the year, a significant injury to Curry isn’t one the Warriors can afford.

Back in the Warriors’ lineup after sitting out Monday’s loss to the Timberwolves, Curry shot 50 percent from the field on Wednesday. And for the first time in nearly three weeks, he’s scored at least 25 points in three consecutive games. Curry and the Warriors have one more game on the Week 15 schedule, Friday night against the Pistons. To say that it won’t be an easy game for Golden State is an understatement.

Curry was initially probable for Wednesday’s game after sitting out Monday’s loss to the Timberwolves. His return will push Pat Spencer to the bench, where the two-way contract guard offers minimal fantasy value.
