Kerr also confirmed that Curry won\u2019t travel with the team for the upcoming three-game East road trip, which includes stops in Philadelphia, Cleveland and Chicago.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe will not make the trip. He\u2019s gonna stay home,\u201d Kerr said of Curry on Tuesday night, via 95.7 The Game.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was a long shot for him to play in the back-to-back [against the Cavaliers and Bulls]. And we don\u2019t play again until Friday, so it just makes perfect sense for him to stay home with [director of sports medicine and performance] Rick [Celebrini], get the rehab done here, get his work in and hopefully be ready for Minnesota next Friday.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"683c1269ee7b332f7fb92aad818d3c34\">\n<div>\n<article>Steve Kerr said Steph Curry won\u2019t make the road trip.

So he will miss the Sixers, Cavaliers and Bulls games. Kerr said he\u2019s hopeful Curry will be back for the home game against Minnesota next Friday.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Warriors Surprise Thunder<\/h2>\n<p>The Warriors were not just without Curry, but even Jimmy Butler III (sore left knee) for the second half of Tuesday\u2019s game against the reigning NBA champions. Yet, the Warriors made it a close affair that ended in the Thunder pulling away with a 33-24 advantage in the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n<p>Kerr\u2019s team shocked the defending champions by outscoring them 44-28 in the third quarter, courtesy of Brandin Podziemski (nine points), Moses Moody (eight points), Pat Spencer (nine points) and Gary Payton III (six points) carrying the offensive load. Furthermore, new acquisition Seth Curry and Jonathan Kuminga came up huge as well.<\/p>\n<p>Seth Curry finished with 14 points from just 18 minutes, including two made threes.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Stephen Curry Injury<\/h2>\n<p>Stephen Curry was initially slated to be reevaluated on Thursday after he was diagnosed with a quad contusion and a muscle strain last week. However, Kerr\u2019s latest update suggests the evaluation won\u2019t exactly determine his return date, as the Warriors will be without their best player regardless of his progress over the next three road games.<\/p>\n<p>Curry hurt his quad during last Wednesday\u2019s loss to the Houston Rockets. The injury occurred with 3:24 left in the fourth quarter when he tried to defend a charging Amen Thompson under the rim, which was first deemed an offensive foul. However, the call got overturned into a blocking foul on Curry, who stayed in the game until the last 35.2 seconds despite a palpable limp. Although he walked back to the locker room on his own volition, he seemed in a great deal of pain, struggling to place weight on his left leg.<\/p>\n<p>Shortly after the injury, Kerr said he was glad Curry didn\u2019t hurt his knee or ankle.<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Articles \/ Paragraph Links\">\u201cIt\u2019s a big relief,\u201d Kerr said on the Stephen Curry injury, via\u00a0The Athletic\u2019s Nick Friedell.<\/p>\n<p data-mrf-recirculation=\"Articles \/ Paragraph Links\">\u201cYou always worry when Steph goes down that it\u2019s something that\u2019s going to keep him out for a while. So, the fact that we\u2019re taking it by the week and doesn\u2019t appear to be anything too serious is a great sign.
