Golden State Warriors star and four-time NBA champion Stephen Curry has missed the past nine games due to a shoulder injury he suffered on Dec. 14 against the Indiana Pacers.
With his Warriors in the midst of a five-game winning streak, there seems to be some good news on this front.
Appearing on 95.7 The Game in the Bay Area, Warriors general manager Bob Myers indicated that they’re hoping for a Jan. 13 return against the San Antonio Spurs.
If this comes to fruition, it means that Curry would’ve missed 12 games. That includes the entirety of Golden State’s ongoing eight-game homestand.
Despite their current winning streak, it’s rather obvious that the defending champs are missing what Curry brings to the table. Prior to going down to injury, he was in the midst of another MVP-caliber season.
