Is Steph Curry playing tonight against LA Clippers? | March 2nd, 2023 | 2022-23 NBA Season

The Golden State Warriors will be without Steph Curry when they take on the LA Clippers on Thursday after winning three straight games.

These wins have come without their talisman and best 3-point shooter in NBA history, Curry. With a number of other scorers having stepped up in recent weeks, it seems as if the same trend will have to be followed by the supporting cast against a strong LA Clippers side.

Steph Curry, the star guard of the Golden State Warriors, sustained several injuries during a game against the Dallas Mavericks on Feb. 4. These injuries include partial tears to his superior tibiofibular ligaments and an interosseous membrane, as well as a contusion to his left lower leg.

Curry was re-evaluated after the All-Star break and it is currently unclear when the player will return to action. The injury report for the LA Clippers game also lists Steph Curry as questionable. The Warriors have not released any timeline for his possible return so far. The player is obviously crucial to the Warriors’ hopes this season.

Their recent run has put them firmly in post-season contention. The Golden State Warriors are now fifth in the Western Conference with a 32-30 record and can afford to miss Steph Curry for a few more games.

Steph Curry expected to miss out against LA Clippers

Going into the All-Star break with a record of 29-29, the Warriors won three out of their first four games after the break. Klay Thompson, in particular, has stepped up in Curry's absence, averaging 29.8 points per game over that four-game stretch.

While the Warriors have moved up to the Western Conference standings thanks to their recent success, they know that they will need Curry back as soon as possible if they hope to make a deep playoff run. As of now, there is no clear timeline for Curry's return.

Although there was some speculation about Curry possibly returning to the court for their game against the Clippers on Thursday night, the Warriors have officially listed him as out on their injury report. Curry sustained several injuries.

In 38 games this season, Steph Curry has been averaging 29.4 points, 6.4 assists and 6.3 rebounds while shooting 49.5 percent from the field and 42.7 percent from 3-point range. The Golden State Warriors will need to rely on other players to step up and fill the void until Curry is able to return to the court.
