"I don't expect him to play in Dallas." Kerr gives an update on Steph's ankle injury 🔽
The Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr has stated that he does not expect the star forward Stephen Curry to play in the match against the Dallas Mavericks.
The 35-year-old missed the match against the San Antonio Spurs on Monday because of an ankle injury.
Talking after the match, Kerr stated that the situation will be assessed on Tuesday but he does not expect Curry to return to the starting lineup for the match against the Mavericks.
“Yeah, we needed that and obviously we’ll reassess tomorrow,” he said. “But I don’t expect him to play in Dallas.”
The Warriors went on to win the match against the Spurs with a score of 112-102 at the Frost Bank Center in San Antonio. Kerr, in the same press talk, highlighted the importance of that result, especially without the presence of Curry who did not take part in the match as well.
“We have another tough game coming up,” he said. “We needed this one, obviously. We’re in a fight right now down the stretch of the season. So, good to get the win and build some confidence without Steph, too.”
The victory, however, was not enough for the side to be up in the points table in the Western Conference where they are still placed in the 10th position with 34 wins and 30 defeats.
