Both the games went down to the final six games. While the Grizzlies’ game had a nail-biting finish, the Warriors made sure they put away the Raptors a little faster. They recorded a 129-117 win, and moved on to 25-24 record.
Stephen Curry recorded 35 points, 11 assists, and seven rebounds as he led the charge for the 2022 NBA Champions.
As the team prepares to play the Thunders, fans wonder whether Steph will suit up tonight.
Stephen Curry will play tonight
A day before the Raptors Game, Stephen Curry was announced as a starter for the 2023 All-Star Game. This marked his 9th All-Star selection. Despite missing 11 games due to injury, Steph was nominated as a starter for the game.
While he took a moment to express his gratitude for the same, his biggest concern at this time is the Warriors’ record. For the same reason, he’ll be there on the court tonight when the Dubs face the Thunder.
The team’s latest injury report suggests the same. The only player on the report for tonight is Andre Iguodala.
Andre Iguodala is the only Warrior on the team’s injury report for tomorrow’s game in OKC. He’s been dealing with a right hip strain.
Andrew Wiggins should be good to go. He was a full participant in practice today, and Steve Kerr said he “looked great” in the scrimmage.

Andrew Wiggins is expected to return to the lineup tonight, which should give the Dubs a two-way boost.
Steph’s last-five game stats
In the last five games he’s played, Steph has averaged 33 points, 5.2 rebounds, and six assists. This just shows how well the Chef bounced back from his shoulder injury. Nearing 34 years of age, Steph is averaging 29.5 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 6.4 assists a game.
If the other players can keep pitching in like they have, the Warriors might make a late push and secure a comfortable playoff berth.
