Is Stephen Curry Playing Tonight vs Lakers? Warriors’ Starting Lineup Likely To Not Feature 9x All-Star
The Golden State Warriors come back home after a disappointing trip to Portland. Despite Klay Thompson and Jordan Poole combining for 69 points, the Warriors fell short 122-125. For the second time this season, Stephen Curry missed a chance to play against Damian Lillard. Steph’s impact was clearly missed, and Blazers used it to their benefit.
This levels the season series between the two teams. The two teams will meet two more times again before the regular season ends.
Heading back home, the Warriors have managed to shake things up on the trade deadline. They moved James Wiseman and managed to re-acquire Gary Payton II.
Hosting the Lakers tonight, the fans want to know one thing. Is Stephen Curry playing tonight?
Stephen Curry will not play tonight
Playing against the Dallas Mavericks, Stephen Curry locked his knees with a player on defense. The same was a painful experience for the Warriors’ star, who went to the sidelines and left the game immediately.
