Is Stephen Curry Playing Tonight vs Lakers? Warriors Release Injury Report for Game 2
Just a few days after erupting for a 50-point game, Stephen Curry was restricted to 27 points in Game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals. Despite leading the Warriors to a 14-0 run late in the 4th quarter, Curry was unable to take the San Francisco-based franchise across the line. Thanks to the dominance of Anthony Davis (30 points & 23 rebounds) and LeBron James’ 22-point, 11-rebound double-double, the Lakers grabbed a 117-112 win.
Regardless of the result, the reigning champion’s performance in Game 1 wasn’t disappointing. However, considering Steve Kerr’s boys’ awful 11-30 record on the road this regular season, Game 2 will need to be a win for them before the series shifts to the Crypto.com Arena.
However, if the GSW want to emerge victorious in the upcoming contest, the availability of their 2-time Most Valuable Player will be essential.
Stephen Curry will suit up against the Lakers
The only major change Steve Kerr made in the second round as compared to the first round was starting Draymond Green and playing Jordan Poole off the bench. There weren’t any players part of the rotation who missed out on the contest due to injuries.
Curry, after averaging a staggering 33.7 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 4.9 assists on 48.8/37.8/82.9 shooting splits in the first round just recorded 27 points, 6 rebounds, and 3 assists in Game 1.
Steph will hope to have a better stat line tonight. According to the latest injury report, Stephen Curry WILL PLAY tonight.
With AD and the King being in incredible form, the likes of Draymond Green, Andrew Wiggins, and Kevon Looney will certainly see more playing time, in hopes to prevent LAL’s All-Star duo from stealing the game from the Warriors.
With both teams playing with all their stars, the contest will promise to be an action-packed thriller.
