Injury Concerns for Warriors as Curry and Green Exit Game Early

The Golden State Warriors faced a challenging situation during their recent victory against the Washington Wizards, as both Stephen Curry and Draymond Green exited the game early due to injuries. Curry, who had been performing well with 26 points, suffered a left ankle injury late in the game. Meanwhile, Green experienced tightness in his left calf and was unable to continue after just three minutes of play.

Curry’s injury occurred with just over a minute left on the clock, prompting concerns regarding his fitness for upcoming matches. However, postgame reports indicated that Curry felt optimistic about his condition, stating that his ankle "feels great" and expressing confidence in returning for the next game. His coach, Steve Kerr, referred to the injury as not serious.

Green’s situation is more uncertain; he will undergo an MRI to assess the severity of his calf injury. Head coach Steve Kerr confirmed that both players are considered day-to-day and emphasized the importance of filling Green’s role on the court. This is particularly critical as the Warriors prepare to face the defending champion Boston Celtics in their next matchup.
