The Golden State Warriors will be without star point guard Stephen Curry for at least another 10 days due to a lingering right knee issue, sources confirmed to ESPN.

This extension will retain Curry sidelined for a minimum of five additional games. He has already missed the last 15 consecutive games, diagnosed with patellofemoral pain syndrome, commonly known as “runner’s knee,” characterized by swelling and pain around the kneecap.

Curry has begun on-court training, a positive step in his recovery process. Sources indicate he remains highly motivated to return for the final stretch of the season and help the Warriors secure a playoff spot through the play-in tournament. He is aiming to intensify his workouts in the coming days.

However, Curry has described the right knee problem as unpredictable, noting setbacks since it first surfaced during individual training on January 24. He initially anticipated a return after the All-Star break but adjusted his timeline after not achieving the desired results.

Warriors Struggle Without Curry

The Warriors have lost three straight games, including close contests against the Chicago Bulls and the Utah Jazz. Their current record stands at 32-33, placing them below the LA Clippers in the ninth seed and facing a potential play-in matchup against the Portland Trail Blazers.

Curry will miss Friday’s home game against the Minnesota Timberwolves, as well as upcoming road games against the New York Knicks, Washington Wizards, Boston Celtics, and Detroit Pistons.
