NBA – Absent since the beginning of the month, the leader of the Warriors should still miss a few games after the break linked to the All-Star Game.
The All-Star weekend break shouldn’t be enough. Blocked in the infirmary since February 4, Stephen Curry will stay there for a while. The Warriors player, who suffers from a partial tear of a ligament in the knee and a contusion, has already announced his absence for the first post-All-Star Game, on February 23 on the Lakers floor.
He could miss a few more games as his team continues a series of home games (Rockets, Wolves, Blazers, Clippers and Pelicans) until early March.
« Ligaments can heal in different time frames. There is a window for each control point. After the All-Star Break, I hope to come back. And then, depending on how things are going, we can settle on a specific return date. », Formulates the leader, who therefore does not yet know this date.
Confined for the moment to physical activities far from the floors (cycling, bodybuilding), the one who should have honored his 9th career All-Star selection adds: “ It’s a slow process at first, you have to let the healing mechanism begin. The goal for now is to let the injury heal while maintaining my strength and fitness. Stay as active as possible. »
At least his team isn’t completely sinking in his absence. With their win tonight over the Wizards
, the Californians are back in the positive (29 wins – 28 losses) and remain in the playoff race. By combining the various passages to the infirmary of the leader this season, the Warriors show a record of 9 wins for 10 defeats.
« It’s about trying to find a way to win the next game. It may sound boring, but that’s all you can really focus on. The guys are fighting every night trying to create momentum, to take a little distance in the rankings, to find more identity of what we are collectively “, enumerates Stephen Curry who says to himself “ very optimistic compared to the “back-to-back” of his team.
After the Wizards, the defending champions indeed continue on the floor of the Clippers this evening. He and his teammates can then ” enjoy the ‘All-Star break’ [pour] refresh mentally and physically ».
